Bug Description

Hi,

Every day when I start up evolution, it seems that it begin to download the whole GAL of my company. It uses a lot of memory (even swap) and makes the system unstable.

Ubuntu 12.10 beta2 updated -d
Evolution 3.6.0.ubuntu3

Connected to company's Exchange (2010) using evolution-ews
Removed the option of caching the offline address book, under account properties

My organization has more than 100 K contacts in the GAL. From day to day evolution-addressbook download the whole list of contacts, despite it hasn't change. So it makes new directories under the path ".cache/evolution/addressbook", each of them bigger than 2Gb (!!!). I always has to kill the process, remove the oldest directories and leave the newest ones.

After that, I can work :-)
