It is a Gmail issue, not Evolution. It will occur with any mail user
agent software - and even with the Gmail web interface, though I don't
think it blocks the latter. Google is flagging the fact that your
connection is coming from a different IP than "normal". You can allow
this access via the Gmail web i/f, but I don't know if multiple sources
are stored.

What's the best practice for using Evolution across a VPN with GMail ?
It seems that every time I'm on a VPN either incoming, outgoing or
both operations fail. Occaisionally, I'll get
a Google notice that it blocked an attempted access, but it doesn't
happen consistently.
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.)
Is this one of the cases, where configure Oauth2 would be of benefit?
No.
