Yes, any Kolab compliant client must be able create the standard folders.

If you did use the Webclient (based on Horde) coming with Kolab Server,
then this would be a defect. Please go the route of
http://wiki.kolab.org/index.php/Problem_reporting
I haven't checked the Synckolab plugin in for a while, but if the creation
does not work, you should also file a report with them.
(In both cases make sure that you run a Kolab Server which actually allow
annotations to be created.)

It seems you are not using the Kolab Webclient, e.g. coming with Kolab Server.
Maybe this version of horde you are using was not properly prepared to be a
Kolab Client.
You could use a script to create the needed folders and set the annotations
of course, but if you are using a defect version of Horde, this will not help.
