It can still be done by giving your exchange server a bogus domain like = yourcompany.local. You should also make sure that there is a (local) MX = record for this domain (f.i. through DNS on your win2k PDC). Now you can = forward (redirection with or without impersonation, as you wish) all = mail for one or more users to your exchange server. You can still store = the mail in xmail, but you can also leave this to exchange, as not all = mail will pass through xmail (see next paragraph).
I think every alias/user can have only one main mailbox (either on xmail = or on exchange) as the mail from exchange to a @yourcomany.net is = handled locally by exchange. You *can* configure exchange to relay all = mail for unknown users on your local domain to your xmail server. But = still known users will be handled locally by exchange. I think you should configure exchange to have yourcompany.local as it = primary domain. Now there are two choices: 1. with local impersonation. Do not configure exchange for any other = domain, so all mail for yourcompany.net will pass xmail. Configure xmail = to redirect your mail to your .local domain WITH impersonation = (LREDIRECT). All mail for yourcompany.local will not leave exchange. Now = Xmail is your main mailserver for yourcompany.net. 2. without local impersonation. Configure exchange so that every user = has a alias in the yourcompany.net domain and make this domain local for = exchange. Now the mail will NOT pass xmail if sent through exchange. = Exchange is the main mail server for your .net domain, but mail from = external will pass xmail. As an option you can configure exchange to = relay all local mail for unknown users to your xmail by means of a = SMTP-connector. For my installation i choose option 2 and it works fine. My exchange is = purely local and all external mail (in- and outgoing) is handled by = xmail. Good luck.
