Which is the correct behaviour as described by the Kolab format specification.

If this is the case I would consider it to be a kontact bug as it is  
against the specs. Please open a bug report on kolab.org. Make sure  
you include the exact version of the Kontact client you are using. Did  
you ensure that you use a Kolab specific release of Kontact? I have no  
real overview of the Kontact development but as far as I know you  
definitely need to use the special releases from the Kolab team.
