The Ximian Connector for Exchange plugin for Evolution is not free
(around US$25 per), but does offer full exchange connectivity via the
OWA and WebDav (so these must be turned on at the Exchange end). This
will also maintain your public address books and folders, and most of
the features available to Outlook users. We have run into the odd
problem here (Uni of Canty) with this product when used with clustered
Exchange servers where users are unable to view folder contents (a bit
annoying, but you can point them at the particular server name they are
located on). You can import Outlook PST files into Evolution though,
which may be useful.

Another option (apart from the Lotus notes plug of course) is using
Korganiser from KDE 3.1 or later for calendering as it has a plugin for
Exchange via WebDav as well. You can then IMAP via Kmail to Exchange for
your e-mail. Unfortunately no public folders or public address books.
Mind you, after reading previous posts, it looks like you are actually
trying to replace Exchange... Good luck :)

The plan was simple, like my brother Phil. 
But unlike Phil, this plan just might work.
