Roger that. We have a problem.
The XOAUTH2 authentication should not be tried if no XOAUTH2
configuration option is set.
Could you please try v7.0.7?

The *_eval configuration options are the evaluable option to provide the
the real value by a function stored in the pythonfile.
Here, "accountname" is whatever string for the function in the
pythonfile to return the correct value if there are more than one
account using the same function. This helps to factorize the code in the
pythonfile.

There is no external Python dependency. The dependencies should be
provided by the "basic/default" Python environment.
