Please note, this is educated guessing - I could be wrong, but....

I think the evolution-data-server is the backend for the mail etc on
your local machine - i.e. it only serves to itself.

CalDAV is for calendaring, not for contacts.

To do shared address books you need an LDAP server - see

Anyone else have experience here?
