Description Frederic Crozat 2015-06-15 16:01:12 UTC
Running evolution /evolution 3.16.3:

1/ exchange account is configured through gnome-online-accounts
2/ go to account configuration in evolution and try to enable offline caching for GAL. 
3/ after accepting the change in the UI, go back to the configuration UI: the change was not saved, offline caching for GAL is still disabled.

The same setup works fine if the EWS account is configured through evolution directly.

I can confirm this, seeing two scenarious:
a) the GOA account was just created when the evolution was running - then
   the changes in the Mail account Properties do not stick, they are even
   not saved
b) restart evolution and evolution-source-registry (restart only evolution
   doesn't do the trick) - then the change is saved, but also the name of
   the account is changed into Unnamed. (bug #732598)

After quite some investigation the collection source, where this information is saved, wasn't set writeable, thus the change was ignored.
