Our mail is hosted by our ISP. For some users it is picked up by
mailessentials and put in the correct users mailboxes on the local
exchange-server. So far so good.
What I want to do is have the users' primary smtp-address in AD be the same
as the ones our ISP uses so that the local server can send the mail directly
(not via ISP) and still have the right "reply to"-address.
Ex:
My addr. on the internet/ISP: me@mydom.com
My addr. on local domain: me@mydom.local
My primary SMTP on local exchsrv: me@mydom.com

The problem is that when a locally hosted user with a .com address, ex:
usr1@mydom.com sends a mail to a user that uses popmail directly to the ISP
(not on local exchsrv), the mail never leaves the local exchange server, but
usr1 gets a mail from local system saying the user doesn't exist.

How do I resolve this? Is there someting to be done with Virtual
SMTP-servers, Connectors or DNS?

Thanx i advance!
