Thanx!
But....

I also did this! i even loaded the three packages and compiled them (it
took about 4 hours) on my Mandrake 9.1. At last, i tried to start the
build kmail, and it crashes every time, i try to activate the groupware
functionality.
it is the same problem, as described in another article. Seems to be a
prob with mandrake 9.1.
AND:
shouldn't it be possible to send and receive emails via normal clients?
on the lowest level (Console,telnet) i wrote an email to the server and
the server accepted the messsage, but it was not possible, to get them. 
authentication works, but kolab says: no mail for user ....

Today, i'll try the pre-build packages from www.kroupware.org on my
knoppix. 
And maybe even the client on another knopppix .
