I have an interesting schema problem, and solution. I
have one company in California, and one company in China.
We are currently using a Pop/SMTP service to handle all
of our email services, which is terrible for a million
reasons. I have set up the WAN between China and our
company in China, which handles the routing of all of our
traffic. We are forced to run everything through our WAN
as China's internet is awful as they still monitor all
traffic coming in and out of the country, unless it is
routed through Hong Kong, which is where I routed our WAN
traffic.

Having POP/SMTP email has got to go(it was here before I
got here), so I am reconfiguring our schema. Both
locations use mycompany.com as their email, but each
company has it's own domain(not in the same forest). The
owner wants them to have the same mycompany.com email.

I want to put email servers at each location, and was
wondering if their is a way to forward all email traffic
for specific users to the email server in China? So if
an email comes into the email server for
xzhou@mycompany.com at our California location, who is
actually located in China, it will get routed to the
email server in China. I don't want the email server in
California to process any part of the email other then
who it is for and where it should go. I know there are
some forwarding settings that can accomplish this, but my
ultimate goal is to cut down the gigantic amount of WAN
traffic that we are having, and improve email stability,
security, and speed.

Any ideas?
