Kmail cannot connect to Gmail if 2-factor authentication is set on a Google
Account. Instead, a less secure App Password must be used.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Kmail
2. Connect outgoing mail to a Google Account
OBSERVED RESULT
An App Password is required.
EXPECTED RESULT
Kmail (and all of Kontact) should use the Online Accounts intergation built
into KDE.
