Read up on that issue...

There is a short section in the
perl-kolab/perl-kolab/Kolab-LDAP/LDAP.pm.in script (see Kolab CVS)
that looks like this:

    elsif( lc $perm eq 'write' ) { if( $sf ) { $_ = "$uid lrsiwdp"; } else { $_ = "$uid lrsiwcdp"; } }
    elsif( lc $perm eq 'all' ) { if( $sf ) { $_ = "$uid lrsiwdap"; } else { $_ = "$uid lrsiwcdap"; } }

The trailing part will specifically disallow creating subfolders for
shared folders (e.g. if $sf => "c" will not be given as permission).

This change originates from 

http://kolab.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs-kolab.cgi/server/perl-kolab/Kolab-LDAP/Attic/LDAP.pm.diff?r1=1.29&r2=1.30

And the reason for that behaviour has been given in

Cheers,
