[Evolution] Evolution, Imap, Google and half a dozen devices



Evolution  3.38.3 (flatpak gitabb3636)

I run the aforementioned version of  Evolution on a half dozen  laptops and desktops at various locations
around the world.   Access is by imap using OAuth2.

My free Gmail account and my paid for G-Suite account always pop  the "blocked attempted access from 
unsecure app"  about every third time I start Evolution.

It doesn't matter, if it is the same computer 3 times or 3 different computers (even when 3 on the same network)
I'll get that message.   And if I don't log into the Google account in question and mark it as me doing the action
the account gets locked out until I go deal with each of the notices.

Has anyone figured out  how to prevent this behavior by Google?   whitelisting MAC addresses maybe or some
special token from Google?   Anything ?

Thanks
Mike
