        Hi,
as far as I can tell, the evolution-ews does use proxy settings from
Edit->Preferences->Network Preferences (you can create a specific proxy
settings for the EWS account in the Advances proxy settings). The
problem might be with the DNS resolution, which is filled for glib at:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/issues/1320

I'm not sure, but maybe a fake record in /etc/hosts would help.
        Bye,
        Milan
