disabling non-mail folders via IMAP - what does it break?

We are testing Kolab 3.1 development on CentOS6 and trying to test
various IMAP clients.
I've noticed that, when connecting my IMAP client (Thunderbird),
non-mail folders are shown (ex: Calendar, Contacts, etc.). Since many
users are not super intelligent when it comes to email, it would
probably be beneficial to disable these folders via IMAP because
Thunderbird/Mac Mail and etc. cannot properly parse the items in there
anyway.
To that end:
1) Would disabling those folders being available (by default) via IMAP
break anything (ex: kontact)? Our current clients are primarily using
Mac Mail and Thunderbird only.
2) Is it possible to disable those folders from being presented by IMAP
by default?
Cheers,
