So here is the solution. Someone tell me if this makes ANY sense... seeing as how I am not the exchange admin. I was right, everything was added appropriately, however, our exchange admin told me I needed to stop and start the MTA service on the exchange server. I did this, and sure enough, external e-mail for the new user(s) started working. Why in the world would this be needed?
