[Evolution-users] Unable to login to gmail on a fresh install

[Tim MCCONNELL]

Hi  All,
Nevermind it apparently was a corrupted install, I can add my gmail
accounts after reinstalling my OS and starting again.

@ Pete, Thank you for the trick with gmail and sorry for replying to
just you. I'm not a user of  Gmail's webpage very often and the sooner
I can get out of it the happier I am.
