Hello Peter,

have you solved your problem?

I never tested this, but I'll have to do...

I can't help with packaging and integrating cyrus-sasl-xoauth2 with
isync but maybe getmail6 (packaged in Guix) is able to get your emails
from your enterprise IMAP server

This howto is for getmail 5.6 but AFAIU should also work for getmail6
(it's mentioned in the official getmail6 documentation [1]) 

Last but not least, please consider that if you can (and if your company
server/postmaster allows it) it's much better to use an "app password"
method instead of Oauth2
https://pypi.org/project/getmail/#oauth2-privacy-policy

HTH! Gio'

P.S.: please give us feedback if you can, I think your is a common
problem among Guix users
