I have never used Evolution with Exchange, but I'm surprised by the
symptoms you describe.  Any chance you have two "PDA" objects
configured, and you changed the conduit settings on the wrong one?

If that's not the case, it sounds like a bug in the conduit.  It might
be worth trying a "one time" action of "copy to PDA" to see if that
works (assuming you don't mind wiping the calendar/addressbook data on
your PDA.
