does the internal server have MX like this:
maildomain1.com MX 10 Imail.server.com

who is "it"? antecedent unknown, comment rejected
Can we see some imail logs when you send mail to the internal server?

you should have in NT hosts file:
ip.ad.re.ss imail.domain.com ; default ip address for
; default/nonvirtual Imail domain
ip.ad.rs.s2 maildomain1.com ;
You also should have ip.ad.rs.s2 in smtp security, "relay for addresses", ime.
That otta work.
