[sylpheed:37233] Warning: Beginning Oct 1, 2024 Sylpheed will no longer function with GMail POP3/IMAP

See the statement from Google here:

https://workspaceupdates.googleblog.com/2023/09/winding-down-google-sync-and-less-secure-apps-support.html

It looks like in order to continue using Sylpheed with POP3 (or IMAP)
Sylpheed will need to begin supporting OAuth -- which, according to the
last email thread on this,  the development release (sylpheed-3.8beta1,
which claims to support it) isn't actually functioning correctly.  It goes
without saying I suppose that the stable release, 3.7, does not support
OAuth.

If say, by September Sylpheed continues to not function with GMail it
appears I will have two choices: move to another email client (one that
supports OAuth apparently) or change email providers.  I've been with
Sylpheed since the beginning and it's giving me consternation... and
feeling quite a lot of anger towards Google too.

Thoughts?
