procmail is pulled in as a requirement of postfix, so you can't
simply exclude it.

The good thing is that postfix in Kolab Server does not need
procmail, so you could do the following (as user "kolab")

1. install the postfix source rpm:
     openpkg rpm -Uvh postfix-2.4.6-20080101_kolab.src.rpm
2. remove the procmail PreReq in postfix.spec:
     cd /kolab/RPM/SRC/postfix
     $EDITOR postfix.spec
3. recompile postfix:
     openpkg rpm -ba postfix.spec
4. use the created source and binary RPMs to create a new installed
   as described in 1st.README ("Generating your own 00INDEX.rdf for
   installations or upgrades")

(all this should work in the half-ready environment your aborted
installation leaves behind)
