"What I want to do is get the mail auto
forwarded to me via SMTP (from my ISP)"

If you are using SBS version of Exchange,
you can find a special POP3 connector which
do what you want.

However, you said you are using normal
Exchange version. You need ask whether
your ISP can provide such service to you
free. You may need to buy a 3rd party
POP3 connector program.

3rd party POP3 connectors:
