Hello Ubuntu user technical support.

I posted the question below on AskUbuntu 8 days ago and 39 people have
read it but there is no answer offered.
I have done searches. Please advise me where to try next.




"As a retired home user I only need access to email from my desktop PC. 

So I have used Evolution as mail client interacting with Gmail's 
server for many years. Receiving email is with Password and sending 
email is set to Plain;     because Evolution in Ubuntu 18.04 does not 
support the Google security setup OAuth2.

I have read Ubuntu Community Wiki for a couple of hours and checked similar Ask Ubuntu questions.


Is my email secure enough? As an end user age 80 I am not skilled with terminal commands."



Thanks for helping. Chas--
