First you have to install a graphic interface, for example with "sudo aptitude install kubuntu-desktop", "sudo aptitude install ubuntu-desktop" or "sudo aptitude install xubuntu-desktop".

Installing the kubuntu desktop will give me a graphic interfase, but still have the server aplicattions (web server, mail server, samba server, etc...)????

Yes, as I've said you've installed Ubuntu Server. If you don't want to have the server appilcations any more you can remove them. For example "sudo aptitude remove apache" will remove the Apache Webserver. Or you can use an grafical application manager, in KDE this is normaly Adept (K > System > Package Manger[or something in that way] ).

The other solution is to install just the nomal Kubuntu- or Ubuntu-System, not the Server version.

Can you help with this problem?
