Yes I did that. Anything else I missed? Please help.

Remove the account from evolution and start again. First go to the
gmail setting and check that under "POP download. 1)Status" it says,
in green letters, "POP is enabled". If this is not so, then enable it
and don't forget to click on "save changes".
Then go back to Evolution and create the account from zero.
1) Name: <your name>
Email Address: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
2) Receiving mail:
Server type: POP
Server: pop.gmail.com
username: razorpeak
Use Secure Connection: SSL encryption
Authentication Type: Password (click "check for supported types"
and you should see that the other possibilities are struck out)
3) Sending mail:
Server type: SMTP
Server: smtp.gmail.com
CHECK "Server requires authentication"
Use Secure Connection: SSL encryption
Authentication Type: Login (click "check for supported types" and
you should see that the other possibilities except PLAIN are struck
out)
username: razorpeak
Save that configuration and you should be able to send and receive
mail from Evolution with your email account. Make sure that the
account is "enabled" in evolution. Go to Edit/Preferences and you will
see a checkbox in the "enabled" column before the name of the account
you've just created. That checkbox should be selected.
I've just done this whole procedure with this account (which I didn't
have set up to download), and it worked perfectly. Hope it helps.
