Thanks, I did get a new token and it seems to work again.  The token
expired after a week.  Is there any way to make the interval longer?  I
didn't see one, but I could certainly have missed/misunderstood something.
 
Having to get a new token once a week is a chore and doesn't seem required
if I use oauth2 through, e.g., FairEmail. Is that because I have to do it
for my own claws-mail "project" rather than an app that's vetted by
Google?  Or does the oauth2 stuff in claws just not yet support some
fancier automated process?
