I was experiencing this exact same bug as well. Based on information I read in the corresponding RedHat report (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=879773) I was able to get this to work by removing all the Evolution configuration directories (which did have some prior attempts at configuration from a long time ago) and killing and restarting Evolution:

↪ rm -rf .config/evolution/ .cache/evolution/ .local/share/evolution/

↪ pkill evolution

I went through the account wizard again, and after adding the password prompt showed up and I was able to type the password and add the account.
