You're going to have to give us more information.

   Like what is your version of Evolution?

   What are you trying to do?

   How are you creating the account in Evolution?

But I will say that I have 2FA turned on (and every one should!) which
means that it won't "allow less secure applications" and my Evolution
happily connects to my gmail account without any problems.
