	Hi,
did you actually test it or you trust an AI output, which can be wrong,
please?

File->New->Mail Account->user at gmail.com->Next->Revise Details->change
from IMAP to POP, and it still offers Authentication "OAuth2 (Google)",
thus it at least knows it can use it. I did not finish the account
creation, because I did not want the POP account to mess with my IMAP
account.

IMAP is better, in many ways.

	Bye,
	Milan
