For educational purposes, why can't I have an email server in the office for people that just want to pass files and send quick emails to each other and the email server to and from the outside world?
You can set a separate mail server internally that doesn't interact with the outside world. That elimiates many of the thorny issues, but not you have two mail systems. If you set up multiple mail accoutns in Outlook, I'm not sure how to force it to send your internal e-mail only to the internal server, and all other e-mail to your other mail server.
Why not use virtusertable and I guess a smart host. Basically all email hits the internal server. It then decides what to keep locally and what to send out. It wouldn't be hard but depending on the number of users could take a little effort. Nick
