Hi, I hope I am on the right track here ....a Beta version from my
newsclippings:

Support MS Outlook on Linux... No Exchange required 
OpenMail is the only non-Microsoft server to support the rich collaboration
features of Microsoft Outlook including calendar, group scheduling, real
time free busy lookup, tasks, and mailbox delegation.

OpenMail on Linux Evaluation Software
To access the free, fully-functional, unsupported evaluation software blah

... download evaluation versions of OpenMail server installation image for
RedHat Linux 6.0, the OpenMail MAPI Service Provider for the Microsoft
Outlook client, the OpenMail Motif Client for Linux (OMGUI), the cc:Mail
driver software, and the PC Admin client.
