It might still work though. Kolab is using IMAP folders for addressbook and calendar folders, basically storing the contact/calendar data as attachments in mails. I don't know the exact requirements though, I think the IMAP server needs to support IMAP folder attributes so the folder can be marked as being a container of "not actually email". What you could try to do is to stop all KDEPIM apps and then run "kolabwizard". I think (haven't tried this myself) this will create addressbook/calendar folders on the specified IMAP server and setup the config needed to access inside Kontact. People on KDE's kdepim-users mailinglist might have such setups and be able to give you better hints than I am. Cheers, Kevin
