Hello Cheffo,
I wanted to do what you asked and after a lot of research I was able to 
achieve this by installing on the FreeBSD server openldap for the email 
addresses and a WEBDAV folder in Apache for the calendar.
My setup has my email address in the ldap server and these addresses can 
be accessed by Outlook and Thunderbird.
I use Sunbird as the calendar and publish the calendar to the webdav folder.

The ldap server can be maintained by phpldapadmin 
http://phpldapadmin.sourceforge.net/

This setup allows all users to have access to a common email address 
book and a common calendar.

The only thing I was unable to do was setup an imap server to allow 
access to Common emails.

I am interested in being able to set up an imap server.

Regards,
Ivan
