[MlMt] gmail keeps asking for login credentials

I am trying to set up gmail in MailMate for my personal (i.e.
@gmail.com) account and a school account which uses google apps (i.e.
@schoolname.ca).
When I set up the account using Oauth2 it brings up the login screen for
google, and I successfully log in. When it prompts me with “Allow”
or “Deny” I click on “Allow” and it proceeds to close the
window, and then gets caught in a loop constantly asking me to re-enter
my credentials (and “Allow” each time). It feels like something
isn’t remembering that I allowed access for MailMate.
I will say that I have successfully set this up on another email client
on a Windows10 machine, and the same steps work, so I know I can set
this up _somehow_.
Some additional background information: I recently did a re-build and
copied my MailMate folders over from an old computer (10.12.x) to a new
one (10.15.x), and this is the first time I am trying to set up a new
account (all other accounts work fine). I don’t know if that is
material to the issue.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
