Don't want to do this.

Here's what we have
Domain1
A (same as parent) xx.xx.xx.100
A www xx.xx.xx.100
A mail xx.xx.xx.120
MX mail.domain1.com


> Zone for domainname2.com
> CNAME 10.1.1.27
Wouldn't this send web traffic for domain2.com to domain1.com's mail server?

I want to do the opposite.  I want to route web traffic from domain2.com to
domain1.com but split out the email traffic for domain2.com and deliver it
to a separate mail server than the one listed in the MX for domain1.com.
