Thanks. The reason I left K9 in May of 22 was Google (temporarily, it turns
out) insisted all Android MUAs switch to 2FV but at the time, Christian
Ketterer (the main K-9 developer) didn't have the resources alone. 

So cketti worked with Mozilla developers to find an OAuth solution by the 8
of July when most other MUAs were still scrambling to recover.

It seems the Thunderbird team assisted the K-9 team in implementing the
OAUth2 magic strings. That effort was apparently the major impetus to have
Christian join Mozilla since Google can kill any small MUA outfit in a
flash.

When it happened, I didn't feel like switching back so I forgot about this. 
Thanks for reminding me.
