Just do a search, there are plenty of How-To's out there for setting up
Evolution for Calendar, etc., functions. If you haven't tried that hard,
it won't work at all. While I'm sure that OutLook performs adequately,
this is the place to look for Open Source solutions, eh? 

I can attest that Evolution does the job, quite nicely, and the price is
righteous. ) Ric
