General problem with connectors

Hallo together!

I´ve been -very- busy on testing different connectors the last days and  
they seem to have the same problem. Syncing contacts seems fine but when I  
sync calenders the new entries often don´t get synced. This happend with  
Thunderbird+Lightning+SynKolab and Toltec Connector with Outlook 2007  
(wasn´t my decision to use it). Konsec Konnektor is mentioned to be  
Outlook 2007 ready in the change log, but someone form Konsec wrote me  
that the connector isn´t realy tested with Outlook 2007. The Dialog for  
Konsec Konnektor for sharing Outlook folders didn´t even appear.

Could there be general reason for these missing syncs?


Now when I am writing this mail I think I come more closer to the problem.
A typical situation is: User-B adds an appointment in the Calender of  
User-A and syncs. Both users have full access to each others calenders.  
The imapd.log looks like this, when User-B clicks on Calender in Outlook.  
How important is the message "SQUAT failed to open index file"? It seems  
that the appointment isn´t written in the Calender of User-A

I get these logs when User-A clicks on calender:

I want to prensnet our it-chef a practical solution as an MS-Exchange  
replacement with Kolab. But with this quality I can´t present him anything  
convincing.

Any Ideas?
