Setup qmail on the firewall as per the instructions. Then put in your
domain name in control/rcpthosts. Now qmail will accept mail for your
domain. Then setup control/smtproutes like this:
your.domain.com:[IP.address.of.exchange.server]
This takes care of incoming mail. For outgoing mail, setup Exchange to use
the qmail as a smarthost. On the firewall, arrange to run qmail-smtpd so
accept relayed messages from the Exchange server. See:
http://qmail-docs.surfdirect.com.au/docs/qmail-antirelay.html
for instructions on how to setup qmail-smtpd safely.
