External Calender Auth issue with Google

[Ka0sKontrol]

When you enable external calendars and try to authenticate with google it gives the danger error page (e.g., "This app is blocked This app tried to access sensitive info in your Google Account. To keep your account safe, Google blocked this access"). Unable to use MS Outlook calendar since the option is greyed out/non-selectable. Requesting Google Auth fix.

Same issue here. When I try to turn on access for "Less secure apps" I get this message in my Google settings: "This setting is not available for accounts with 2-Step Verification enabled. Such accounts require an application-specific password for less secure apps access" and am directed to the following help document: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/185833?hl=en

This needs to be solved with an app password as described in https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/185833.

Where are we supposed to put the app-specific password into EVEMon? The only option appears to be "Request Authentication" which ends up going straight to the "This app is blocked" screen in the screen shot of the initial report.

I'll dig a bit into this -- I cannot promise a resolution though, since the original integration is quite old, and predates me by at least one, probably more maintainers -- this is likely the reason google is blocking it.
