That URL does not display any image. (Please try to provide error
messages as text so they could be searched for in list archives.)

Please also provide Evolution version information.

As I don't know the error, referring to IMAP only:

Have you set up your Google account via "Online Accounts" in the GNOME
Settings and allowed it for "Mail" so Evolution could use it?

If you don't want that, have you allowed access for less secure apps at
https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps ?
