Hi Mihai,
I've been working on it all night/day: can you please pastebin your:
dpkg --list
and provide me which debian version are you using? Jessie or wheezy?
Thank you for everything by now... :)
 


As i said , I don't use the full kolab package.
I have few servers running slackware, but this one is debian and is used 
for a little hosting business so it is running for a while. It's debian wheezy.

My advice was not to install the package but just look at the config :) 
The installer is a little buggy and it has some tricks ( my goal was to create 
a "normal" mailserver first, using openldap+postfix+dovecot , because this 
can be done with standard packages ( this step is not so version 
dependent, just installing packages and populate ldap) The second step is 
to enable kolab services; this is a little tricky because it is distribution and 
version dependent. I use only libkolabxml and roundcube plugins, plus 
kolab-syncroton and chwala from the kolab project. This is the basic part.
The kolab schema is more complex and i prefer to have a lightweight 
project even loosing some functionalities. 
But if you install kolab, you need only to adjust dovecot ldap queries and 
you can use  my config as starting point.
