Yes But it does require getting packages from unstable.

Yes  they are correct.
I tried on 2 different servers just see this:

In Postfix log
Apr 28 14:27:22 kolab <info> postfix/smtpd[2925]: connect from 
unknown[192.168.101.12]
Apr 28 14:27:22 kolab <info> postfix/smtpd[2925]: setting up TLS connection 
from unknown[192.168.101.12]
Apr 28 14:27:23 kolab <info> postfix/smtpd[2925]: TLS connection established 
from unknown[192.168.101.12]: TLSv1 with cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA (256/256 
bits)
Apr 28 14:27:23 kolab <info> postfix/smtpd[2925]: disconnect from 
unknown[192.168.101.12]

At this point pretty sure it is not the fault of your version of kontact.

It fails under the following:
Original etch install.
Upgrade to entrerprise 3.5  packages.
Reinstalled all cyrus ssl packages
Reinstalled kdebase-kio-plugins
Installed kdebase-kio-plugins from backports.

The following works:
imaps or imap via tls always works.
Am running  xen with xfs so tried.
Simple new etch  install with xen + ext3. Works
Simple new etch install with xen + xfs  Works

Any more ideas on  what could break smtp via tls in kmail?

Running out things to check.

New installations of lenny will happen in a few months I'm tempted to just 
leave it as is, no one uses kmail now anyhow, but it really annoys me :-(

Thanks

John
