--- Comment #66 from wozny.piotr at gmail.com ---
At Kubuntu 18.04 with backports Kontact 5.7.3

I am able to generate app specific password via google account, but switching
to plane is not possible. 

Whenever i put imap.gmail.com as imap server address, the password option get
gray with no possibility to set password. 

BTW There are only 2 places in Kontact I can find plain authentication: smtp
settings, which I believe is not the one to change, but in imap settings there
is only Sieve settings have this option. Is this the place to change to plain?
anyway this is also greyed-out when gmail is imap server.

Could somebody please produce step by step instructions for this workaround so
that more people like me - not being power users could work with gmail accounts
/ calendars / contacts?

have a nice day
Piotr
