Kontact (already installed) or Evolution (in the repos). It is a matter of preference. They are also excahnge compatable. At least evoution is.

I think Kontact has even more functionality than Outlook. I use it regularly.

Actually, Thunderbird e-mail works fine with Exchange via IMAP. I use it for work. But I have yet to find a calendar app that works well with Exchange. (Evolution was causing problems.)
