I think I got it to work, initially with http, but after installing 
Service Pack 1 for Outlook 2003 and importing the CA certificate from 
the kolab server into Windows, https also worked. Notice that DTSTART 
and DTEND are still b0rked for some reason, so you might have to scroll 
the freebusy view back or forth to see that it actually displays 
something.

Mini-Howto install the CA cert: Copy /kolab/etc/kolab/ca/cacert.pem from 
the kolab server to the windows box and rename it to cacert.cer. Then 
double-click it and follow the wizard.
