Horde or SquirrelMail + appropriate addons
Cyrus IMAPd or Dovecot
Sendmail or Postfix or Exim or ....
You should be able to use SASL to hook up any of these to AD for
authentication purposes. (If you choose sendmail, you'ld want the
version from ports so you can compile it with all the SASL bits.)
Horde certainly will allow you to create Global and Personal address
books via various different back-end databases. In principle it can
use LDAP so you might be able to bodge it into AD, but I'd recommend
MySQL as the least grief, fastest benefit solution.
Horde also provides shared and global calendars, accessilble via
CalDAV.
No idea what to recommend as a control panel for the firewall, MTA and
imap servers I'm afraid.
Note that Outlook is designed to work with MS Exchange, and often gives
less than optimal results with other mail servers.
Cheers,
Matthew
