Thanks for filing this issue.

I haven't had to figure out single-sign-on authentication for
Excorporate yet, but it's good to have a bug report about it so that we
can work on solutions, assuming they exist.

The first thing you can try is to access the EWS URL in Firefox.  Does
browsing to it result in you being transferred to the single-sign-on
page?  And if you authenticate, do you then see a page that says
something like:

"Service

You have created a service.

[...]"?
