last time I looked, the free (as in beer, it is not open source) version 
of scalix didn't support calender sharing, you had to purchase a copy 
for that.
Scalix is very nice, but very proprietary and very expensive. Depending 
on the situation I would suggest Hula with the new evolution available 
in Dapper. It will support calender sharing and does a whole lot of cool 
stuff as a mail server too. Point and click admin with web mail pop and 
imap support. Not sure how it interacts with Outlook, but I know Hula 
works well with it, I just don't know about the calender sharing bit.

Gunna be really good in the future releases.
