That's not a vanilla Gmail account, is it? I don't know the precise terminology, but I have the use of a similar account set up by my employers as a fall back account that has proven useful when the official (outlook/office365) email server has problems.

I think my not-quite-gmail account doesn't use OAuth2 either. Just a password.
