Well, it's a clean Debian 3.0r0 :)

I know these problems, that's why I prefer Courier-IMAP.

That's clear and I would do it for myself, but I can't use it for
production servers and out of our house. I can't always keep an eye on
it.

Well, it was a small remark in an email, I did't make a big thing of
it. You asked and I said, why I think, Kolab isn't ready for
production servers. And you wrote too: "but once set up the server
works very stable". First, this 'once' must be reached... Of course,
it's a beta, but I didn't say anything else. :)
