I've started to use Evolution as my primary email client and I am quite pleased with it. Only have one issue with it now.
Evolution uses Gnone Online Accounts (GOA) to configure it's email accounts. This is nice and convenient, but it causing me a bit of an issue. GOA email is configured as an IMAP account in Evolution and there is no way to edit the server type. If I configure the account directly in Evolution, it picks up the correct setting of IMAPX. IMAPX, unlike IMAP supports IMAP IDLE for push notifications of new emails.
I want to disable the GOA google account in Evolution, but can't seem to do it. So, now I have 2 gmail accounts. I could remove it from the GOA settings, but I use GOA to get notifications and would prefer it stay in there.
Is there any way to hide or remove a GOA account from Evolution?

OK, when I added the Google account directly in Evolution, my GOA account now shows as IMAPX. I deleted the account I added and am just using the GOA account and IMAP IDLE is working. Have no idea what happened here, but I'll go with it.
