I have tried multiple times to re-authorize but getting no where...

Actually - it had my default marked as my Outgoing (work email) so it was causing the error. Fixed and no further issues. Thanks and take care.

I've got the same problem in Essential PIM but I don't understand how to solve it.

I compile messages and send it but all the messages stay in the folder Outgoing. When i'm pressing a button Send it has no any effect.

IMAP working fine (OAuth). I see all incoming messages.

I guess an SMTP authenticating does not work. But I can not change SMTP parameters:
server - smtp.gmail.com
port - 465
encryption - SSL/TSL

SMTP should also be an OAUTH one. I'd recommend you to remove and then re-add the account back in.
