  Can you point out which part of this is relevant to Gmail integration?

  Pretty sure that's fake news. To my knowledge, they've only deprecated authentication with your regular password via IMAP, you'll now have to at least create an app password.

For GMail sync someone else has already mentioned Lieer which is an excellent tool for robust two-way syncing of emails and tags/labels between Notmuch (and anything that uses it) and GMail. It uses the GMail API so it doesn't rely on IMAP. https://github.com/gauteh/lieer https://github.com/gauteh/lieer

    Not the GP, but I use Fastmail and love it. I hear Protonmail is good too.
