Hi,
there is no such guide, because those are private data.

You are right, it really should not be that hard. I recall there had
been some issues with password prompts in certain cases in the past,
surely fixed in the latest stable, which is 3.34.x series.

I agree, it's pity. Yours 3.28.5 is basically ancient, you might get
more luck with the recent stable (otherwise nobody could use it,
right?).
You can try, as a workaround, configure the account through GNOME
Online Accounts (if the version provided by your distribution supports
IMAP accounts), or, if you did it before, then configure it directly in
Evolution. It can change things.
Bye,
Milan
