Check the link I gave in my previous post - that page contains most of the 
information you're looking for. With regards to using more than one client at 
a time - the Webclient is able (as far as we can tell) to read in data 
objects created with the KDE Client, however it doesn't seem to work the 
other way round. If you try and use the two together you'll probably end up 
losing data, so I wouldn't recommend it :-)

Unfortunately Outlook mailboxes are not recognised by any of the Unix/Web 
clients, as (at least when using the Toltec connecter) the data is stored in 
a non-Kolab-standard format.

Basically my advice would be to use a single client exclusively for each 
mailbox, at least for the moment. Like I've said interoperability is one of 
our highest priorities and will most definitely be available sometime in the 
future.

As Jan said, unfortunately not. The Kolab website is not the easiest to 
update :-)

Cheers,
