        Hi,
okay, that's a pita. Could you keep running evolution-addressbook-
factory with EWS debugging on in the background, and when it'll strike
back, then check the log for the backendError message and what preceded
it, please? That would show what evolution-ews passed to the server and
eventually shed a bit of light on the issues.

To do that:
a) close evolution
b) open terminal and run in it:
   $ EWS_DEBUG=2 /usr/libexec/evolution-addressbook-factory -w &>log.txt
   Actual path can differ on your system.
c) run evolution and use it as before

The log contains all the communication between the server and the
client, exposing all the private information down to your contacts, but
the only interesting part is the one with the backendError and what
precedes it. Maybe file a bug report in GNOME bugzilla and we can
follow there. Feel free to send the relevant part of the log only to
me, but reference that bug report, otherwise I'd overlook it in my spam
folder. Definitely keep the log for later use, in case I'd need more
information from it. Also note that the file as such will be fully
populated only after the factory is properly closed, due to caching,
which it might to roughly 10 seconds after you close evolution (and all
other clients connected to it, if any).
        Bye,
        Milan
