Kolab 16 on Debian 8
pykolab is still running into problems with Umlaute.
A similar problem with pykolab was fixed in 2015 ? https://lists.kolabsys.com/pipermail/bugzilla/2015-April/023924.html
I also tried to post it to the list to find help or help fight the bug: http://lists.kolab.org/pipermail/users/2017-October/021305.html
I am pretty sure this error is crashing pykolab which in turn is responsible so that I can create new users but the mailbox wont be created.
The User with Umlaut ö is already existing since kolab 3.3
This error does not happen on a identical system with different users (no umlaute)
