--- Comment #5 from davidkacerek at gmail.com ---
I've been having the issue since I installed openSUSE Leap 15.2. After upgrade
to 15.3 the problem is still there.

What helps is to turn on "Less secure app access" in the Google account
settings and in KMail switch the authentication for sending mail from XOAUTH2
to PLAIN.

This unfortunately lowers the security. More on this here:

The bug is more than a year old now. Any expectation to get it fixed? I'd be
happy to report the bug to openSUSE once it's solved upstream so it can be
backported to openSUSE Leap.
