He is actually looking for groupware ***backends*** as I recall,  not 
strictly e-mail.  
For email there is sendmail+cyrus-map,  the ultimate solution.  But it 
doesn't do anything for calendering, etc....
And there are lots of groupware front ends (moregroupware.org, 
phpgroupware.org, etc....) but those don't support groupware ***clients*** 
like Outlook, etc...  
He specifically wants a back-end, and Exchange killer.
Commercial ones exist, such as Samsung Connect and Bynari,  but nothing 
(AFIAK) from the Open Source community.
PHP Groupware has theoretically developed an XML-RPC API that could serve 
as the basis for a backend,  and this is what the OO people are looking at 
the most.    But currently that is vapor ware.
