I figured it out.

I did a fresh install of kolab to see what they should be.

I was migrating an an older cyrus imap in debian sarge.

I read some instructions on how to copy and it said toe set permissions to  
lrswipkxtea.  Looks like that was a old advice and a couple more attributes 
exist now ant the proper setting is lrswipkxtecda.
And for organizer folders is lrswikxtecda.

Took a while to find anything on the c and d permissions.
Couldn't find anything in the cyrus docs.  Found it in an rfc.

I modified all the permissions and it behaves properly now.
