You want a separate TREE in the forest, not a child domain.

Subject: Exchange and AD Question
This question may be a little off the list subject but you guys are some of the
best authorities I know so I wanted your opinions. (Note the subtle
butt-kissing)
Situation:
Single domain forest with single Exchange Server and total 4 DC. About 85
Employees. Class C IP block with fixed IP addresses for all. We are in the
process of starting up a new venture company and want to keep them relatively
separate from our main organization so as they grow, they can be easily
separated if so chosen. We have our web presence under ourcompany.org and have
reserved a domain theircompany.com for the new company's web presence. We have
also set up recipient policies in Exchange to receive email sent to
theircompany.com for the first couple users we have set up in our domain.
Question.
What would be the best way to set up this new company in our AD organization to
meet the requirements of easy separation in the future, while allowing us to
continue serving them with our single Exchange server and with minimal
additional expense and complexity.
We have been looking into the possibility of setting up a child domain for them
so that they can have separate security and domain suffix but are unsure if we
can do this without adding a subnet or some other complexity.
I appreciate any opinions or recommendations from the wise ones of the list
(more butt-kissing).
Thanks...
