You have several options. You can either install Kolab and use an  
Outlook-Kolab-connector like Toltec, but the you need to indeed  
install the whole Kolab package. Though there are some distributions  
that provide Kolab on top of the existing servers, instead of as a  
replacement.
Alternatively you can use SyncML connectors for Outlook and  
synchronize directly with Horde, but that's not an instant client  
access to Horde data.

You better ask on the Kolab mailing list though.
