It depends alot on your clients, some need ftp for calendar useage, some 
don't. Also, the information of Kolab is stored in the imap server 
mostly, so you could probably use another mail server instead of the 
native one, but it'll be alot of work. It also needs to have sieve to 
enable scripting things like vacation messages. I'd really advice to 
read the architectural docs, which are also available in english on 
http://kroupware.org/documentation.html

LDAP is for managing the users, and for that goes the same as for the 
other answer, it might be replacable by other file management things, 
but you'll need to do alot of hacking.

best,
