IMAP/SMTP plain auth is deprecated Office 365 / Gmail now requires OAuth 2.0

Would this workaround help (Microsoft)?

Hi - keen to know if there will be a version to address this.

Hi guys!
Correct me if I am wrong, but Google and Microsoft will not support classic IMAP/SMTP username/password authentication, now they will require the OAuth 2.0 authentication.
There are many articles about this topic,

'If your in-house application needs to access IMAP, POP, and SMTP AUTH protocols in Exchange Online, follow these step-by-step instructions to implement OAuth 2.0 authentication: Authenticate an IMAP, POP, or SMTP connection using OAuth.'

We cannot set up Office 365 email access, there is no option available.

So my question is, maybe I missed something, is there an app to perform OAuth 2.0 for Gmail and Microsoft?

Thank you!
