[sylpheed:37320] Re: Prevented from switching gmail account to POP3

client as of September the 30th.

Recently someone (who may or may not work at Google, it wasn't clear)
pointed out to me that the use of Google's App passwords *SHOULD* be a work
around to the upcomin OAuth2 mail-client requirement.  Afterwards I did
some digging around and found that a couple of years ago Gene Goldenfield
here on the Sylpheed list enumerated the instructions for setting up App
Passwords:

After the September 30th cutoff date I plan on trying App Passwords first,
and if they fail to work as described I'll make the jump to an alternate
provider.

Warm regards all...
