No, this is a black hole in Free Software land. But you can replace Exchange
on NT with HP OpenMail on Linux. :) It's not Free Software though.

Reefknot is an in-development calendaring framework, supported now by
e-smith (Skud went to work for them, asked if they liked the idea, and as if
they were going to knock it back):

http://reefknot.sourceforge.net/

I'm sure someone will develop and Exchange interface for it. Quite likely
someone as brilliant and nutty as Luke Leighton (ex-Samba hacker who has
talked about doing this for a while).

If you're happy with using Maildir, have a look at isync - by the author of
mutt.

http://www.isync.org/ (I think.)

Plus mutt and Evolution. :)
