none of these suggestions work as the moment you click "Add new account" and select Google, the error 400 message pops up. Clearly this is an issue for several users as more and more of these posts are popping up on these boards.

so what happens when you contacted Google about not being able to add their mail account, you'll need 2 factor authentication or app specific passwords to use their account.

This is happening to me as well, OSX El Capitan, Mail 11.5... Just can't add new google account into Apple Mail, incredibly frustrating going through all these updates which disrupt and take hours of troubleshooting before users can continue actual work that they need to do.
