Hi!

You are using a native port (Kolab2/Suse, Kolab2/Debian,  
Kolab2/Gentoo, ...) of the core Kolab2/OpenPKG system. Such native  
ports have far less stability (as they see less testing) than the  
OpenPKG-based server.

For people that are not an expert in mail server configurations we  
would always recommend to use the OpenPKG-based version as the benefit  
of having a working system is usually higher then the benefit of being  
able to use the system tools of your favorite distribution.

This does not mean that the people on this list won't answer your  
request if they are able to do so. But the likelihood of finding the  
right answer to your problem might be higher by contacting the  
maintainers of the native port directly.

For direct support for your specific port we suggest to use the  
following contact possibilities:

  - Kolab2/Debian: Mailing list pkg-kolab-devel at lists.alioth.debian.org
    (http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-kolab-devel)

  - Kolab2/Gentoo: Forum (http://forum.pardus.de)

  - Kolab2/Suse:   No defined support address. You might get a response on this
                   mailing list.

Cheers,

Gunnar Wrobel
