No, I said Gnome Online Accounts, not "Google".

Bring up the Gnome settings page and there should be an item called
'Online Accounts' and in that an item labelled 'Google' - enter your
mail account information there and it will appear in Evolution once
it's authenticated.  There's plenty of info if you Google for it.
