I don't recall how I recreated the email accounts.
I have just now done the following:
1) Deleted gmail email account via Evolution
2) Checked Online Accounts and there were no entries for Google
3) evolution --force-shutdown (had to perform twice to kill all
processes)
4) From Gnome Menu
Evolution
Edit
Accounts
Add
Mail Account
I then filled out for with gmail account information. I left the box
for "Look up mail server on the entered email address" checked.
I then clicked Next and the returned settings looked okay.
The gmail account showed up in Evolution with seemingly all the old
email present.
A short time later I received the following message:
Execution of filter "Mail from utube" failed: invalid folder URI "xxx"
The URI appeared to be a normal UID type string.
I then went back to the Gnome Menu
Evolution
Edit
Preferences
Select the gmail account
Edit
Receiving Options
I changed the setting for "Check new messages every 1 minutes" to 1
I selected "Check for new messages in all folders".
I clicked on "OK".
I restarted Evolution from the Gnome Menu.
There were no GUI displayed error messages on startup.
It is been 10 minutes and there have been no GUI displayed error
messages.
For at least now, that seems to have resolved the issue.
Thanks for the assistance.
