It is quite unlikely you will find something that fits both your
requirements. Unless you did mean freeware and not Free Software.

Anyway, the current enterprise favourites are:

IBM Lotus Domino: I think this is more popular than Exchange, even.
Banks, financial institutions etc. seem to love it. Runs and fully
supported on RHEL, and though it has a different client (Lotus Notes),
an Outlook connector is available.

Novell Groupwise: SLES is probably the preferred server distro.
Haven't heard of an Outlook connector, but they ought to have one.

Apart from the above two, Bynari has a product called Insight - a
server that's built from Free Software bits and pieces (OpenLDAP,
Postfix etc.) and the only client I think is an Outlook connector.
Then there is Open-Xchange - I have no clue how good it is. Also, once
upon a time there used to be a Netscape Collabra or something - I hope
Redhat open-sources it if they own it now.
