I use both thunderbird and evo-ews (different computers - and on same
computer) and I am not experiencing these issues. I use davmail version
davmail-4.6.2-2377 and evo evolution-3.16.3
evolution-data-server-3.16.3  evolution-ews-3.16.3

I did compile it from source, FWIW.

I do NOT have both open at the same time though on the different
computers, nor on the same computer. This might be the issue... contention.
