Sounds possibly similar to my NTLM OpenLDAP woes on Fedora Core 3.
To verify it is so, steps like this can expose the details of your problem more to light,
$ evolution-2.0 --force-shutdown
$ locate evolution-exchange-storage
(it will be in some libexec area)
(so start up this backend process by hand before re-starting evolution)
$ E2K_DEBUG=4 /usr/libexec/evolution/2.0/evolution-exchange-storage
$ evolution-2.0
(watch the output logs when it dies)
The solution to the problem seems to be to coerce that backend process of
evolution-exchange-storage
into using specially modified OpenLDAP libraries with the NTLM patch. Otherwise, it dies because it cannot complete the needed authentication.
Good luck.

Subject: [Evolution] Debugging Connector problem
For reasons as yet unknown the Evolution connector for Exchange on my
host suddenly refuses to work (RHEL 4, Evolution 2.0.2). Every time I
start up and try to access my Exchange account it tells me:
The Application "evolution-exchange-storage" has quit
unexpectedly.
You can inform the developers of what happened to help them fix
it. Or you can restart the application right now.
and then (twice):
Error while Scanning folders in "Exchange server <my exchange
server host>".
Lost connection to Evolution Exchange backend process.
Any clues on how to proceed debugging from here are appreciated.
Thanks,
-norm
