Hi Milan; Just to let you know, I followed your instructions below and it works perfectly. Am in process of peeling pulseaudio out of my system as I write this. I only had it to satisfy gnome-control-centre which is no longer needed.

You can use evolution(-data-server) without GOA. You can compile evolution-data-server with Google authentication support, which will allow you to create Google accounts directly from the Evolution with all features which GOA offers. If you really have the development version, then the easiest is to open Evolution, then: a) in menu Edit->Accounts->Add->Collection Account b) Email address: user company com c) Advanced Options->Server: gmail.com d) click Next, wait for the discovery to finish e) click Next again (at the bottom it shows how many "candidates" it found) f) Left the Collection, Mail Receive and Mail Send at their defaults and click Next again g) name the account anyhow (defaults to the used email address) h) click Finish Now you'll be asked for credentials and when Google authentication support is enabled/compiled you'll see a web login page to Google account, like with GOA. Once finished you'll get the account in the list and if everything will go that well as on my side, then you'll get also all your Calendars, Task lists and the Address book, just like with GOA. Doing the same with the stable version (3.26.x inclusive) is a bit tricky. You do: a) File->New->Mail Account b) set a fake user gmail com address c) let it lookup for the settings d) once the lookup is done, do not click Finish, but Previous instead e) correct all the user gmail com addresses with your user company com address (it's on three pages) and make sure "OAuth2 Google" authentication type is selected both for mail receive and mail send f) check which parts you'd like to have enabled at the last page, aka Calendars and Address books and name the account anyhow (this is the fourth page with the email address). The outcome should be pretty much the same as with the Collection Account. You might verify that you've selected all calendars you want to synchronize with CalDAV (thus evolution and other CalDAV clients) at https://calendar.google.com/calendar/syncselect Bye, Milan _______________________________________________ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list gnome org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list |
