just as a documentation, here's the way to grant subfolder creation rights to 
anybody...:

login as root on the kolab system
su - kolab-r
/kolab/bin/cyradm -U manager localhost
---> have your manager passwd ready
---> then you'll be admitted to the holy grail :-)
---> 'help' will give you an overview of available commands
---> and entering the following will grant the 'c' right in addition to the 
other rights to 'anyone':
sam shared.relix_share at relix.de anyone lrswipcda

--> then you'll need to update your kontact client so that kontact knows that 
you may create a subfolder. 

:-)

Best wishes,
Markus
