Hi Arun,
Please do all the following steps carefully. At the end you will get OWA in your portal.
Please ensure that mail service, Notification service and Subscription service is working fine.
Also user mapping should be done properly according to Exchange Server. This can be done for all the different Exchange users whose OWA you want to access. 
1.   Logon to portal as administrator
2.   Navigate to Content Administraion -> Portal Content -> Content provided by SAP -> Collaboration -> demo Role -> iViews.
3.   Right click on link "Outlool Web Access Inbox" the click on menu Open-> Object
3. Select “Show All” property category->
   Select hight type as “FULL_PAGE” and
   Set the URL template as  
   http://<Your exchange server name which you configured in mail service for example dald3456:34567>/Exchange/User.UserId/Inbox/?cmd=contents
   Expand the arrow button (URL Template). In the End-user Personalization select
   “Read/Write” instead of Hidden
(If you are not able to find this combo box then you need to create through PCD. Please see at the end for procedure to create)
4.   Give the role "Collaboration Demo" to end user where you want to configure the OWA.
5.  Logon to portal as end user (Even you can make your administrator as end user)
6.   Navigate to Collaboration Demo -> Outlook Web Access -> Inbox
7.  Click on Menu Tray under "Outlook Web Access Inbox" -> Click on menu "Personalize"
8.  Set your language and URL Template. You just need to change "User.UserId" with end user name (for example if end user name is ArunKumar just change  "User.UserId" with ArunKumar)
9.   Click on button Apply
10.  Now you will get User Authentication Window. Enter your user name and password (User name and Password should be the same which you entered during user mapping)
Now you are able to see the inbox of that particular user.
Steps to create "End-user Personalizatio" Combo Box
Please note that you can do this if you are already familar with PCD otherwise first time take a help from PCD expert because one wrong step will crash your portal.
1.   Logon to portal as Administrator
2.   Navigate to System Administration -> Support -> Portal Content Directory -> PCD Inspector ->
3.   Accept the term and conditions
4.   Browse to portal content -> com.sap.pct -> Collaboration -> Demorole -> iView
5.   Click on PropEditor of OWA inbox iView
6.   Click on link "New Mata"
7.   Select URL Template from combo box
8.   Add URL template as "personalization" and Value of Meta Attribute: as "NON_DIALOG"
9.   Click on button 'Create'
Now you are able to see the personalization combobox. You can see SAP note # 999543 for more information.
If you have any problem please feel free to ask.
