I know that, I just posted the error log because you asked, I know
there's nothing new.   

According to Google, they were going to turn it off on May 30th.   But
for the moment they seem to have turned it back on.   Yes I know
they're likely to turn it off again some time.   

(I thought I'd invoked Oauth2 but apparently I hadn't bothered.   I'll
probably do the app password thing and hope Google don't dump on that
too).
