Shared folders would be a feature of an IMAP server.  SMTP is for
sending mail only, and POP3 doesn't do folders.  All of the major IMAP
servers support shared folders:
Dovecot:  https://wiki.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes
Cyrus:  htttps://www.cyrusimap.org/imap/concepts/features/namespaces.html
UW IMAP:  https://www.washington.edu/imap/IMAP-FAQs/index.html#4.6

There are also a few software suites for Linux that provide
functionality more similar to Exchange than the usual SMTP/POP3/IMAP
trio:

Zimbra is the most popular and has the most feature-parity with
Exchange, but it's also the most enterprisey/complicated:

Kolab uses a more traditional Linux stack for its services while still
being easy to use, and they're a great open source citizen:

Both of these support shared folders.  These tend to be disfavored by
the wisened old ladies and gentlemen that frequent this list.  But, if
you're users are office drones who have never used anything but
Outlook before, they'll be happier with these solutions than a basic
webmail client (or worse, Outlook's terrible IMAP functionality).

There are a few other options, but their open source offerings are
buried behind their enterprise offerings so they're hard to recommend:
https://www.open-xchange.com/
https://kopano.com/

Good luck!
