On laptop A OAuth2 seemed ok, but it was trying to send on port 25.
That won't work with gmail.

Laptop B was failing on OAuth2, so seemed to be falling back to id/pw.

You should look at the OAuth2 setup (keys and such) on laptop B, and
the port being used to send on laptop A. ... if things still don't
work, please provide new log output.
