Hi, George. Sorry, I don't think an Outlook equivalent will ever be
included in OOo, though there may eventually be some tighter integration
with other such programs. There are several very good open source mail
and calendar programs out there, so OOo has chosen not to spend its
resources on creating yet another. Many people here use Thunderbird with
the Lightning extension, or Evolution. Maybe one of those would work for
you.

I agree,

But in order to synchronize my smartphone I need Outlook, as far as I know
there are no smartphones able to synchronize with Ligtning?

If you gave the OS for your smartphone, somebody might be able to tell
you what program will synchronize with Lightning/thunderbird, and your
smartphone.
