It still works for me. Just sent myself an E-Mail now via
git-send-email.

    Password for 'smtp://avarab@gmail.com@smtp.gmail.com:465':
    OK. Log says:
    Server: smtp.gmail.com
    [...]
    Result: 250

My settings are:

    [sendemail]
            smtpserver = smtp.gmail.com
            smtpEncryption = ssl
            smtpuser = avarab@gmail.com
            confirm = always

And my https://myaccount.google.com/apppasswords lists an app
password.

If you see this E-Mail from me that means my local Exim instance (which
also has an app password) is able to send E-Mail as well.

I have 2fa turned on on my Google account, I just have these app
passwords for GMail.
