What can I do when the credential prompt doesn't work?

        Hi,
one option was to _try_ to downgrade the WebKitGTK, which you rejected
to do. That component takes care of the web part of that credential
prompt, thus it's the first place to look for changes at.

When you run Evolution from a terminal, will it print anything there? I
mean any runtime warning. It can be from other than the evolution
process itself.

I recall some issues with accessibility enabled, specifically with a
screen reader, but maybe other parts of it can have its influence as
well. Could you try to disable all parts of the accessibility,
specially also the Orca? There used to work:

   $ gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface toolkit-accessibility false

but I do not know whether it's still used. Such change might require
restart of the machine, I think.

Is there a special reason that Evolution produces a pop-up to request
a password only for sbcglobal.net, and not for gmail.com?

No idea, I'm sorry. Let's focus on one problem, then move to another.
        Bye,
        Milan
