This is pretty trivial to do. All you need is a standard qmail
install with a single entry in /var/qmail/control/smtproutes which
points to your exchange server.

That way all mail submitted to qmail will be forward via smtp to
your exchange server.

You may want to set concurrencyremote downwards to make
life a little smoother for the NT server.
