There is an option in Gmail for allowing access by insecure/obsolete email

I'm wondering if that is what is being triggered?
This feels more like a Solaris/Illumos implementation bug to me.
I also had difficultly negotating the connection with my local Dovecot
server in that it appeared to be stuck while retrieving the
(self-signed) certificate from the server. It did succeed after
several tries and a few minutes.
Thunderbird has never seemed like well written software to me, but
there are not many viable options under Linux, and for Illumos/OI it
is a port of code targeting Linux.
Meanwhile, I am extremely happy with text-based Pine/Alpine, for which
I don't see any OI packages offered.
