   In my personal experience, pretty much any email client with the proper   
   TLS works. Ex, I've gotten outlook express on windows 98SE to work with   
   GMail, and my current seamonkey install is using an app password rather   
   than OAuth.   
   Are there specific clients that have had issues with app passwords?
