        Hi,
there is nothing at the moment, but...

...one of this year's GSoC projects involving evolution/evolution-data-
server was an NSS pkcs #11 module to provide user's certificates 
looked-up from configured address books. The code is currently under 
review and either Yumma or Dwmw might be able to tell you more details 
about it.

When using EWS, evolution connects to the addressbook also with EWS, 
not with LDAP, but as I said above, it doesn't matter much, because 
Yumma's module searches in all [1] configured address books.
        Bye,

[1] I didn't touch the code myself, neither review it, but I guess 
it's "all configured books with enabled autocompletion" or something 
like that.
