This is not entirely off-topic for this list. ActiveSync is conceptually
similar to SyncML, which SyncEvolution uses. For synchronization with
Exchange it would be nice to have ActiveSync support.

But there is no open source implementation of client-side ActiveSync
that could be used in SyncEvolution or Evolution that could be used.
There is z-push, but that only covers the server side.

Therefore it is perhaps not difficult to support Exchange, but it
certainly is a fair amount of work that hasn't been done yet. I also
suspect that you want to use it for email sync; this is something not
currently done in SyncEvolution at all, because typically IMAP works
better.

I use Evolution with Exchange via IMAP just fine, for example, some
oddities in the server implementation notwithstanding.
