Hi,
it doesn't, though it let's any user to look on the log without
setting proxy or anything like that, in a "well known" format, instead
of packet capture or anything similar. Nonetheless, whatever works the
best for you.
The notifications are using streaming, that means, evolution-ews runs a
thread called e_ews_notification_get_events_thread() and that is just
waiting for response from the server, with occasional "reconnect",
because the connection can timeout during the time. If this thread is
not in your evolution, then you won't get any notifications. The
reason can be also that the server doesn't report new-enough version,
but I guess that's not your case. The notification listening is
started with GetStreamingEvents "call" to the server.

I'd say it's normal, just the way libsoup works. It tries to get some
page, the server returns "no, authentication needed" (libsoup doesn't
have many options to realize that without trying first). Then it asks
evolution-ews for a password and if given, then it is tried. How it
works with respect of changing authentication methods (Basic versus
NTLM) I'm not that sure. It may also depend on your libsoup version,
there had been dropped an automatic downgrade from NTLM to Basic in
some not so distant past version. But it's possible that it is not
related to what you see at all.
Bye,
Milan
