Hi!

Re your delivering problem:
Actually, Exchange is AFAIK always delivering localy first. The only
thing you can do is to set up the default SMTP server to send all
"unrecognized recipient messages" to alternate server (your ISP), which
is almost the same you asked for :).

Then Exchange won't send NDRs then, but will each message with unknown
local recipient send to your ISP's server, which is going to deliver it
properly on its side.
