Earlier entries in this thread imply that an Evolution library is

behaviors are new.

... also, gnome-gmail 1.7.2 will offer to configure itself as the
preferred application, when launched from the Internet menu. This was
added for Fedora, which removed the Preferred Applications dialog.
I agree that the control-center fix is preferable. Ideally, gnome-gmail
would have no UI.

adds GNOME Gmail back into the Preferred Applications selection list.
Per bug #729357, the problem was the missing x-scheme-handler mimetype
