I just used the auto-configure button and that's what it gave me.
Probably I had set it up manually the previous time, I forget.

This morning I updated my new F27 system and a bunch of packages
changed, including gnome-online-accounts-3.26.1-3.fc27.x86_64. Now the
problem *seems* to have gone away. I'm going to hold off on doing
anything else on assumption that it was a temporary blip, but I'll get
back to you if the problem returns.

And the problem is back. It seems to work for a while, then not work for a while, etc. Now (in the "not working" state) I also get errors trying to send mail, with this pop-up:

The reported error was “AUTH command failed: Unrecognized Authentication Type g65sm3550467wmd.16 - gsmtp”.

Maybe that's a clue. Could it be related to the Google authentication cap?
