In order to update a users messages you need the permission of the user.

Insufficient Permission

Means that you do not have the permission of the authenticated user modify their messages.

Re-authenticate your user and make sure you have requested one of the following scopes of permissions from them

https://mail.google.com/
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.modify

Update reauthencate user:

To reset authentication change "[email protected]" to something else. or go into your credPath and delete the file with that as its name. It will prompt you to authenticate again.
