In general there is not always a requirement to get your application
verified by Google, if you set the status to "external" and 
"production". This was one of the most irritating facts for me too,
as I configured Fetchmail OAuth2 access for the first time. These are
the verification rules:

   Verification Status
   -------------------
   Google verifies projects configured for a user type of External and
   a publishing status of In production if they meet one or more of the
   OAuth verification criteria:

   * You want to display an icon or display name for your project on the
     OAuth consent screen.
   * Your project's OAuth clients request authorization of any sensitive
     or restricted scopes.
   * The number of authorized domains for your project exceeds the domain
     count limit.
   * There are changes to your project's OAuth consent screen
     configuration after a previous published, verified configuration.

Juergen
