The Kolab Server I presume?
("Kolab" means a fully solution with a Server implementation
in place and a Kolab client.)

You need to start "kontact" which will act as KDE Kolab client
and use KMail as a part.

Which version of the KDE Kolab client are you trying?
It also might be that the kolabwizard did not completely configure
the account because it already had some configuration set.
If you can, try starting with e fresh .kde for the user.

In addition, see if Kontact->configuration -> Mail -> Misc -> Workgroups
has it activated okay.
