You are missing context. See below.

Richard, Adriaan de Groot described the process what Daniel did for 
KMail. You have not (yet) been on cc. Daniel basically did what Google 
asked him to do:

Akonadi / KMail and Google accounts resolved!

Also review this blog post by Dan himself:

As I have no interest whatsoever to use Google products like GMail, I 
have no intention to answer any further questions. I just thought I 
clear up the misunderstanding.

Best,
