I'm pretty sure, I've tried all three interesting methods ("Čistý text",
"PLAIN" and "LOGIN") for all encryption methods (None, SSL/TLS and STARTTLS).
And the PLAIN method was the preferred one. No any combination is working now,
with the new akonadi 18.08/5.9.0 (Good news everyone, the google account is
broken now! :-D ). I looks like any combination I choose is ignored completely,
and it uses the same default with the same result.

BTW: What is the difference between methods "Čistý text" and "PLAIN", if any?

If I try to set STARTTLS/PLAIN (None/PLAIN / STARTTLS/PLAIN) and then I drop
the mentioned iptables output rule, and to renew the incoming manually, the
follow mouse policy method makes the desktop unusable, and the network traffic
skyrockets immediately. Sometimes, within this hell, I'm able to see the
strange window mentioned above for a moment, but it disappears immediately.

The following is from the akonadi console:
