It seems the issue has been documented in the following ticket but no resolution has been posted. Outlook 2003 seems to works without a problem.

Update: I’ve discovered that Outlook 2007 works fine if you switch the networking options in virtualbox from “NAT” to “Bridged”. It also fixed some other issues I was having (mapped network drives and group policy didn’t get applied. For reference the domain controller is a Windows 2008 SBS server.
