Any MUA will do for Kolab Server as Kolab Server installs a full MTA,
including postfix which has a sendmail compatibility binary.
Even easier is to install nullmailer and have it all transport to the 
localhost 25 where postfix listens.

mailx should work just as mutt or others.

apt-get install nullmailer
