The "password" property values are stored in it. You can control the
usage of the keyring with the "keyring" property (disable, use KWallet
instead, ...). Or compile SyncEvolution without GNOME keyring support in
the first place.

syncevolution --configure database=<name or UUID> @default addressbook

Creating and deleting that address book is currently out of scope for
SyncEvolution. At some point it was possible to have it create an
address book by using a file:///<file name> URI as database value, but
accessing files like that was removed in EDS a while back.
