This behaviour I also remember, of course...

I generated ldif's by bash script, and inserted them per ldapadd.

Perhaps. I have deleted all entries under cn=external,... and used my 
script to generate a test entry. Here's the test ldif:
| dn: cn=testvor testnach,cn=external,dc=kolab,dc=fuhintern,dc=de
| objectClass: top
| objectClass: inetOrgPerson
| objectClass: kolabInetOrgPerson
| sn: testnach
| cn: testvor testnach
| givenName: testvor
| title: testtit
| mail: testtit at kolab.inv
| o: testorg
| ou: testorg-e
| roomNumber: 13
| street: Nirgendsstr. 13
| postOfficeBox: 12345
| postalCode: 79110
| l: Bleiburg
| c: DE
| telephoneNumber: 0761/12345678
| facsimileTelephoneNumber: 0761/87654321

...and this seems pretty standard to me, does it not?

This will be then be shown under 'Adressbuch verwalten', as it should. 
If I click on 'verändern' (change?), I will get this (in php.lpg):

Please notice the first two lines with ldap.class.php...

If I, then, delete this entry per frontend, php.log says:

... and the entry stays, with "Eintrag gelöscht, warte auf 
Aufräumaktion..." as long as I like. It inserts the
kolabDeleteflag: kolab.kolabserver-fqdn as it should. If I 'kill' the 
entry per ldapdelete (by hand) it vanishes, of course. kolabd etc. is 
running, by the way; ldap-slave also.

Well, this one is the staging system, so to say:). If I create
exactly the same entry by web frontend, everything goes perfectly 'into' 
the LDAP, but all the other symptoms are the same.

Please let me know if I should give more info; I would gladly do so.

Thanks, and my best regards,
