Will any of these authentication options be persistent despite a password change on the Google Account?

To my knowledge it only does password-based authentication.

However, if you set up an app password that password will not change with your regular password (and will not require second-factor tokens if you have 2fa enabled).

  • imapsync supports xoauth (obsolete) and also xoauth2 authentication mechanism via openssl. See http://imapsync.lamiral.info/FAQ.d/FAQ.Gmail.txt which gives http://www.linux-france.org/prj/imapsync_list/msg02129.html and https://github.com/imapsync/imapsync/pull/25/files and https://github.com/imapsync/imapsync/pull/25/files – Gilles LAMIRAL Jul 06 '15 at 19:21
