Why not set up a second server with a new IP address and point the MX of one of the domains to that machine? Move the domain directory tree of the moved domain to the new server and setup a custom domain to smtprelay the old domain from the old server to the new. That way mail won't get lost as the dns change propagates. And if you want to the old server becomes a secondary MX for the moved domain. If you want this instead of changing the MX for the moved domain just add a new one with a lower precedence that points to the new server.
