Can you access the Gmail account via the web interface? If so, there is
no reason for Evolution to have any problems. Evo (and Gmail) aren't
even aware they are running on a VPN and there are no configuration
options for this. If this isn't working, the problem may be with your
VPN setup. (I've used ExpressVPN without any issues.)

No.
