Thanks for the hints! Anyway, I have started everything multiple times, 
without change. Then I noticed in the imap logs:

Jan 16 10:28:36 kolab-test <warning> imap[21482]: DBERROR db4:

...got a bit agitated, and deleted /kolab/var/imapd/mailboxes.db and 
/kolab/var/imapd/mailboxes.db - as it was a very fresh install; surely 
not good for a working one.

Then I killed the kolabquotawarn instances manually, and (as it seems) 
the problem's gone.

But in any case I wonder why these two files got corrupted - as it was a 
very fresh install.

Best regards, Christian
