Map email login
Here is a general outline of the email login process:
Email Login Process
- User Input: The user enters their email address and password in the email client's login form.
- Form Submission: The user submits the login form, which sends a request to the email server.
- Authentication Request: The email server receives the login request and sends an authentication request to the user's email account.
- Password Verification: The email server verifies the user's password by comparing it to the stored password hash.
- Authentication Response: If the password is correct, the email server sends an authentication response back to the email client.
- Session Establishment: The email client establishes a session with the email server using the authentication response.
- Email Access: The user can now access their email account and perform actions such as reading, sending, and deleting emails.
