Ok, I had to reboot Ubuntu to have my GOA account appear (simply logging
off and on did not do it). Furthermore, the first time while my contacts
were populating the Contacts window, evolution crashed in
addressbook-factory. Then I started evo again and all seems to work
fine. Sorry if I don't give any technical detail here, let me know if I
should file a bug (don't know how to reproduce it by now, though)

Thanks a lot,
Andrea
