Abstract: Given a Hilbert space $H$ with a Borel probability measure $\nu$, we prove the $m$-dissipativity in $L^1(H, \nu)$ of a Kolmogorov operator $K$ that is a perturbation, not necessarily of gradient type, of an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator.

Keywords: Kolmogorov equations, invatiant measures, $m$-dissipativity
