Except for calendaring - Emacs + Gnus + BBDB + gnus-pers.el to enable
one to switch "accounts" easily while composing posts/emails. Emacs has
calendaring but currently can't share meeting info, etc. like Outlook
can.
But you seem very wedded to the _way_ Outlook does things; I can almost
guarantee that the fact that Gnus can do all this, doesn't mean that
you'll like it. Extensive customization is possible and easy but one
must learn a little Lisp to do it.
Perhaps Emacs + VM + BBDB would do what you want more precisely; not
sure, haven't tried it in a while.
If you don't like Emacs then somebody else will have to try to help
you. Just a suggestion.
