Evolution mail client doesn't show mail notifications in Gnome when closed

I’m trying to make my mail notifications work in Gnome with Evolution mail client when it’s closed. So far I had no luck…

My configuration.nix has following entries:

{
environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
#evolution
evolutionWithPlugins
evolution-data-server
dconf
]

programs.dconf.enable = true;
programs.evolution.enable = true;
services.gnome.evolution-data-server.enable = true;
}

I have tried using default evolution package (not evolutionWithPlugins) still no luck. I’ve added these lines to make it work after inspecting other threads like this one and reading the manual, but so far I haven’t managed to make my notifications work, despite the fact that evolution is starting up after I reboot in the background with no gui.

Can somebody please help me, if you’ve managed to make this package send notifications to Gnome when it’s closed, please share your configuration.

Thank you, have a great day, legends!
