This is the scariest thing for me, and what motivated me to respond to this email (merely indulging in nostalgia wasn't enough). I once replied to a prospective employer who then asked me why I sent them a blank email. Turns out their email client had collapsed everything in my response including and below the reply mark, which is of course (being a diligent in-line responder) where I had put all my responses. After that, I always top-post a salutation together with a note that my response is below (except for this list since it is populated by in- line non-HTML responders, except for just this time to illustrate this point). That's when I realized that top-posting had taken over the email world. Reports of methods for thwarting such email client behavior with respect to in-line replying are welcome (this is the closest I get in this email to relevance to the charter of this list). -- Robert McDonald ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

Can you install a native version?

It's much better to have defined all your Google sources as a single account, rather than multiple of them (separate mail, separate calendar,...), thus you enter the credentials only once. Using Edit->Accounts->Add->Collection account, or File->New->Collection account, and fill there your Gmail address and then just Next->Next->Next->... with some modifications as you might wish them, is the easiest and working way to create the Google account. The error message itself, when you get "OAuth2 secret not found", you should be also prompted to log in the Google account and that you agree with sharing the data with the application/Evolution, similarly as you did before, I guess. Once you do it again it'll be saved to the GNOME keyring and that's all. If you installed (and ran) gnome-keyring-daemon after the evolution(- data-server) processes, then I suggest to execute: $ evolution --force-shutdown to make sure the libsecret library (on the evolution-source-registry process side) connects to the newly run gnome-keyring-daemon. You can see what secrets you've stored in the keyring in an application called "seahorse".

I just did and all suddenly it worked like a charm. Thanks for the hints. The version was coming from my KDE Depot and obviously was out dated.

The flatpack version is more recent, but flatpack apps run in their own sandpit so sometimes their interaction with other parts of the environment can be a bit hit and miss. Fortunately the native version you have installed isn't that old so it should all be OK.
