I found out yesterday how to add the dimap account on the other port. 
The mails arrived during the night. Luckily, I had 5GB of swap configured.

Currently, nepomuk/virtuoso is indexing, so I'll have to use a Windows 
computer because the Linux pc is too busy spending CPU cycles on the 
index and it takes half an hour before a folder I click on becomes 
visible. There might still be some issues I think...

Anyway, on to the problem: the kolab akonadi resource can be configured:
Resource folders are in account < /account/ >
Unfortunately, the wrong account is selected. I can change it, but it 
doesn't look like it's accepted. The next time I press modify, the wrong 
account is selected again.

With enough patience, I can read some mails(*), but there is no kolab 
contacts nor calendar to be found. Is this a bug?

(* Kontact shows mails in random folders where they do not belong. When 
I'm looking with Thunderbird, the mails are where they belong.)
