I have to admit that I don't know the exact meaning of the parameter
tolerant for yum.

I found this post:
http://serverfault.com/questions/264480/centos-yum-thinks-removed-packages-are-still-installed
You can try this:
 rpm -e --noscripts cyrus-imapd-2.5-48.5.el7.kolab_3.3.x86_64
That should avoid running the postun script, and should successfully
uninstall the package.

It is a pitty that the Kolab 3.3 packages are not available anymore on
OBS, and not even the source anymore.
So we cannot just reproduce this case on a test machine.
For Kolab 3.4 and upwards, I am keeping a mirror at
https://github.com/TBits/lbs-kolab, so that in the future, I still can
checkout the ancient code.

hope this helps,
  Timotheus
