Hmm - but the reason you want to do this is because you have a domain
where application specific passwords are disabled for policy reasons?

If you don't have a domain, then you can do it the easy peasy way, just
generate an application specific password:

- Go to https://myaccount.google.com/security
- Click "App passwords"
- Select Device/Purpose, then "Generate"
