Zimbra or scalix sound like good opensource alternatives (maybe
OpenExchange but I know nothing about it)

If you already moved to M$ Exchange, the only recommended opensource
"thing" you can do is to set-up a postfix gateway with clamav,
spamassassin, greylisting, and a lookup performed on your Active
Directory domain to avoid accepting email for non existing users
