I've reported this to the list before but I did not get any reply from the 
developers. I suppose they are currently focusing on getting the KDE client 
to work properly.

The admin interface (web) will display that the folder has been deleted but 
it doesn't disappear. The kolab process syslogs:

Dec 30 16:40:24 debian kolab[17892]: could not reset acl to delete imap 
user.Kalender
Dec 30 16:40:24 debian kolab[17892]: could not delete imap folder

user.shared1
Dec 30 16:40:24 debian kolab[17892]: could not delete imap folder 
user.shared1

I haven't had the time to take a closer look at that problem yet. The 
internals of the Kolab server are mostly undocumented at this time so 
looking for problems is quite time-consuming for an "outsider" like me.

I think this is a bug, too. The user will not be visible in the address 
book unless you check the checkbox when you add the user.

The kroupware branch will be merged with the official KDE development this 
month.
