You could have a look at the Kolab Wiki: http://wiki.kolab.org
Also the Kolab site has some specific documentation: 
http://www.kolab.org/documentation.html

Regarding templates: all the configuration should be done in the templates and 
the kolabconf utility generates the actual configurations for the individual 
components.

You don't have to worry about templates too much in the beginning, you don't 
need to configure anything there unless you have unusual needs. When After 
installing kolab you have to bootstrap (see docs above) Kolab which creates 
an initial usable configuration. Then you should have a look at the 
configuration webinterface to do some initial configuration (adding users, 
distribution lists, ...). You should at least create one user that receives 
all administrative mails.

I don't know.

I don't know about direct integration. But if you want to have a kind of 
mailing list you can create distribution lists in kolab, which are quite 
similar.

You could also fiddle around with the configuration files to pass mails from 
one system to another, but I would suggest to create distribution lists in 
Kolab instead.
