I haven't tried using the KDE dialogue (though I do use Evolution on
KDE) but I'd be surprised if it works. KDE has its own Kwallet system
which is not compatible with G-O-A, i.e. even if it manages to
authenticate to Gmail with OATH, it won't store the credentials where
Evo can find them.

There's a long-standing open project to unify these things between DEs,
but it's making very slow progress if any.

In terms of Evo, gnome-control-center is definitely the way to go for
now.
