CodeWeavers - Your Home for Windows Compatibility on Mac and Linux have a commercially-supported version of Wine that can do it. Buying it helps support Wine development.

Which unix are you wanting to do this on? I Think AIX works with WINE...

Alternatively, take a look at Evolution for Gnome. Gnome is available on most unix'es.

Another option is to use the web front end for MS exchange, you can connect to the exchange server via https in your web browser and get a very outlook-like interface to your mail.
