***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug
symbols.
See

***
KMail would not use Google OAuth process when adding Google hosted company
email address. And, unlike kOrganizer that Google Groupware is available as an
option when adding new accounts, KMail only provides generic IMAP, where
app-specific password has been deprecated for Google-hosted services.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
* Add a new Google-hosted email account but without gmail domain name. E.g.
<username>@<companyname>.com

OBSERVED RESULT
* Cannot find a suitable option in "Select Account Type" dialog
* No additional provider available in "Check for more on Internet"

EXPECTED RESULT
* An option that can open up a browser page for Google OAuth process

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: 
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.25.4
