Hi,

Our test server indeed writes into several files in the directory
/kolab/var/imapd/log/

Is it possible to increase the ressource limits withing vserver?

I assume that 256 filedescriptors is too low.

I have the impression that maybe your problems are more related to your 
vserver setup than to cyrus or kolab.
