Yes, I really should go with the 2FA and app-password option. Do you
need the 2nd factor every time you connect to GMail via a browser or
Android Gmail app? Or just the first time for each browser/device? A
bit of studying seems to be in order no matter what. :)

I had initially thought that oauth2 was going to be the easier row to
hoe, but it had a lot more roots and rocks than I thought.

I'm just guessing, but I can't imagine that gmane's owner would have
done that unless python-list itself started to refuse posts (or the
python-list admins requested that gmane stop sending posts).
