Interesting. But what is the benefit?
Do you have a messaging product which access the outlook data?
If you have, I would be interested in the concept and maybe in the 
source if you want to share it.
But even if you have such a product, the access to the outlook data via 
an external file which gets served with samba should
be quicker.
