I have experimented with turning the update check off on the 'pop' account.
I have turned off the Online Account switches for all but e-mail / messages.
Here is a screenshot section.

I am running Evolution 3.28.1-2 on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS.
I have my system level IMAP google account and my older POP gmail
account. Both should actually be the same account.
POP updates, but IMAP continuously fails with "ailed to
authenticate:
Data source “stephen gwynn gmail com” does not support OAuth 2.0
authentication"
It is recommended to set up Gmail IMAP as an online account in
GNOME.
Please refer to the GNOME Desktop Help for more information:
https://help.gnome.org/users/gnome-help/stable/accounts
After doing so, the Gmail account will be listed in Evolution.
As an alternative to setting up an online account in GNOME, allow
access for less secure apps in your Gmail account settings:
https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps
I have done that. It is my 'online account' that is generating the
error.
Ah, I see. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=795997 is fixed
in evolution-data-server 3.28.3. (If your distribution does not ship
3.28.3 or higher you need to contact your distribution.)
