Unfortunately, this isn't such easy as Kolab AFAIK is based on OpenPKG
Community 2.4 or 2.5 and this was end-of-live already about a year ago
and hence is no longer provided for download. You can only
_TRY_ to mix in the "fetchmail" package from OpenPKG Community CURRENT
in the hope that it still works with Kolab's older OpenPKG bootstrap.
For this register yourself as described under
http://www.openpkg.org/download/registration/ and then use your account
to fetch the "fetchmail" source RPM package from ftp.openpkg.org. Then
you can try to install it into your /kolab OpenPKG instance with the
following two commands:
/kolab/bin/openpkg rpm --rebuild --nodeps fetchmail-*.src.rpm
/kolab/bin/openpkg rpm -Uvh /kolab/RPM/PKG/fetchmail-*.rpm
