    please:
    - stop the kolab services while changing the configuration
      templates
    - only edit the templates in /kolab/etc/kolab, in your case 
      that would be /kolab/etc/kolab/main.cf.template
    - be nice and leave our placeholders intact ("@@@something@@@")

I should have known this before! Could you please tell me where there
should be placeholders in main.cf? I think I need to reconstruct them.

Also I still can't manage to have postfix authenticate to the provider's
smtp host. Which changes have to be done for this?

Regards,

Ralph Sikau
