The current version of the Toltec connector saves the mails in MS TNEF format 
on the sever. Kontact cannot understand it. You will need to wait for the new
Toltec connector to be released in order to get that functionality. Contact Toltec
for more info.

I might be wrong with this but as I understand concensus has been reached that
all Kolab clients will use INBOX/Inbox as their inbox and not the default Cyrus
one. The latest Kolab2 packages might support this but I am unsure of the
status. You should checkout the format and devel mailing lists for more details.

As said all Kolab compliant clients will use the same INBOX/Inbox...

Kolab2 should address your concerns. I highly recommend that you check the
documentation in CVS as well as the mailing lists for more info.
