If I navigate to
https://outlook.office.com/owa/?realm=XXX&path=/people, then expand
the 'Directory' chevron and go to 'Offline Address Book', the people

I may have been inaccurate, I mentioned outlook.com as I log on via
outlook.com/XXX , but the EWS host url is
https://outlook.office365.com/EWS/Exchange.asmx, so this is
office365.com based.
