Try Mozilla Thunderbird, unless you are hooked up to get your mail from an exchange server. I am not sure it would work with exchange.

I use the Evolution mail client, and I could hook up to an exchange server using Evolution http://shellter.sourceforge.net/evolution/ which has calendaring features and appt book features like outlook but it is open source and also free. It is available for windows, but I have only used the Linux version. Evolution has a nice familiar outlook-like feel to it.
