ADMT will do user and computer account migration. After that you will need
to move the mailboxes with the builtin exchange tools (yeap, in case you
did not knew that) and set the environment for coexistence until the
migration is complete.
The process too complex to be listed here. Do a search with google for
"Exchange cross forest migration" and you will find some documentations.
Start building a virtual environment and test the migration steps. It's
not an easy project and probably you will need the help of a MS partner.

I agree Andrei,

This is a complex process to list out. I just did one two months ago for a
150 user system. There is some preparation establishing trusts, the ADMT
process, SIDHistory to insure coexistence and they can use their old
profiles with their new user account, then cross-forest Exchange
permissions, then moving mailboxes. And that move mailbox tool, however nice
it is, is complex and took some testing with test accounts and tweaking
permissions, before getting it to work right. Then we PST'd the PFs, etc.
