Definitely, sounds like my problem, which means I screwed as
LinuxMint probably won't patch things until 20 and
flatpak isn't option.

It's not a major update, just 3.28.1 -> 3.28.3. Surely Mint provides
updates and bug fixes for things?  Might I suggest you ask on the
Mint
forums about it - possibly file a bug against Mint for the update,
it's
a security issue after all.


So the next question is why can't I revert it back to password as
it
was before ?


Possibly that's a Google issue. But you need to configure your Google
account to enable "less secure login" for it to work at all. 

One other possibility is to configure the account using Gnome online
Accounts - that will use different code for OAuth2 which almost
certainly won't suffer from this bug and it will create the account
within Evolution using the authentication tokens it has got.

Hi
Keep an eye on https://www.ubuntuupdates.org
3.28.3 is on the next release of ubuntu, as Mint uses ubuntu libs you
should be able to update as soon as it appears on the list.
Filing a bug report both on linux mint and ubuntu will speed up the
process.
The ubuntu maintainer of the Evo packages may well be on this list, or
known to someone on this list, and worth contacting.

Updates on LM19 are appearing all the time so it will not be a wait
until LM20
