Dear Maintainer,

The version in stable is missing OAuth support.

Upstream added support for OAuth in 1.8.4 and 1.8.5. Version 1.8.6, currently
in testing, thus does offer the functionality.

I believe this feature will soon be significantly useful to many users due to
pushes from large e-mail providers, especially Google's move to force it for
all G Suite users [1].

I'm using 1.8.6 on buster at the moment and it seems to work fine. Could it
perhaps be officially backported or even included in a future point release?
