? I'm still downloading my Gmail email via POP3 with getmail, without OAuth2. For a couple of years now, Google has been pushing OAuth2, but has still allowed ordinary POP3 / IMAP access to email using "app specific passwords." Has something changed recently? https://support.google.com/mail/thread/23019816/how-can-i-continue-to-use-pop-based-email-after-oauth-is-required-next-year > compatible, but no longer supports local mbox delivery for a LAN. FWIW, BTW, getmail (which does support mbox delivery) does have support for Gmail's OAuth2 (in case you want / need to use it) via its getmail-gmail-xoauth-tokens script: https://www.bytereef.org/howto/oauth2/getmail.html You can also find detailed instructions in the file "getmailrc-examples.gz", in Debian's getmail6 package.
