Public bug reported:

Just installed 14.04, and am trying to get the 'evolution-ews' plugin to
work as a 'normal' user to connect to exchange 2010.   Account creation
doesn't work as a normal user, it only sucessfully works when run as the
'root' user.

To reproduce:
 - launch evolution
 - go through the steps to create a new account, select "Evolution EWS" as the 
account type
 - put your user name in the approproate field
 - hit the "Fetch UIRL" button.  You are prompted for your exchange password
 - Autodiscovery will fail (and account not created).

As the root user, do the same thing, except when you hit "fetch URL", it
works fine, and you are prompted to create a new gnome keyring.

So my guess is there is an issue with permissions or something somewhere
between evolution and gnome-keyring.   I can repro this at will, and
creating a new user doesn't solve it -- the only time it ever works is
when run as the root user.
