If the exchange server supports pop3/ldap:

I use fetchmail (pop3) to bring mail back from the exchange
server to the Linux box. I use mutt (Mail User Agent - MUA) to
read the mail. I wrote a small perl script using Net::LDAP to
lookup the exchange address book in mutt. I installed exim (Mail
Transport Agent - MTA) with the smarthost pointing to the mail
exchange server to send the mail. 

A collegue uses mozilla/netscape (a simpler setup), pointing to
the exchange server.  Mozilla/netscape can lookup the LDAP
exchange address book.
