We have had this problem a couple of times. It is related to the sleepcat databases
of Cyrus becoming corrupt... (or locked or something ;-)

Here is the fix that has always worked for us:

#su - kolab-r
$ctl_cyrusdb -rx
#logout
(Restart Kolab)

Of course I recommend checking the manual page of ctl_cyrusdb if you want to know
what you are doing :-)

Kind regards,
