Kontact from KDE 3.3.2 doesn't support Kolab2 ressources, you can only use 
it together with a Kolab1 server.
So you have touse HEAD or the proko2 branch to make it really work with 
Kolab2.

AFAIK no mozilla program supports the IMAP based calendar storage in 
Kolab(1/2). Webdav can be used to store and read free/busy information, but 
storing is getting to be difficult because Kolab2 is getting server-side 
free/busy generation. I'm unsure about how toconfigure an account so that 
this generation is off (and you can then put your own generated free/busy 
data onto the server).

AFAICT Aethera does only support the Kolab1 storage format. Maybe changes 
are on the way. it would be good to have another client ready for Kolab2.
