There is a problem. From postfix/main.cf:

mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8, 129.142.192.0/20, 192.168.1.0/24

The middle one used to be my old network, and before I delete all files in 
/kolab/var/openldap, nothing I did would change it to the new values.

My "solution":

# /kolab/bin/rpm -r --nodeps openldap2
# rm -rf /kolab/var/openldap
# /kolab/bin/rpm -ba openldap2
# /kolab/bin/rpm -Uvh openldap2
# /kolab/etc/kolab/kolab_bootstrap -b

(All from memory, so I'm sure I left out some details.)

Bo.
