One of the downsides of software you don't pay money for is that, all
too often, there's little or no documentation. One of the upsides of
free software is that you can look at the source code. I don't know
anything about Python-Evolution, but if you're prepared to do a bit of
digging, you can probably find what you want here:

http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-python-desktop/tree/evolution/

(You probably have a copy of the same content on your own hard disk
somewhere, too.)

Once you figure out what you wanted, do consider sending a patch to
the maintainer(s), improving the docstrings and/or external
documentation, so the next person has an easier task. :)
