I think option 1 is my only answer - however it ugly and delayed it is. they currently do option 2 but don't get the local collaberation hence the SBS2003 server requirement.

HI<br />
<br />
I have a client who presently has a domain (company.com) hosted on a mdeamon mail server, they have a new branch in a different country and would like to have a sbs2003 server set-up at there that would recieve email for the local users at the same domain (company.com) . The only way i can think this is posible is by forwarding but not sure how even this would work. Is there a way of having mx records prioirtise the mail to the approriate server ?<br />

Single Mail domain hostsed by  Multiple Mail Servers

Within Internet message handling services (MHS), a message transfer agent or mail transfer agent (MTA) or mail relay is software that transfers electronic mail messages from one computer to another using a client–server application architecture. A MTA implements both the client (sending) and server (receiving) portions of the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP). The terms mail server, mail exchanger, and MX host may also refer to a computer performing the MTA function. The Domain Name System (DNS) associates a mail server to a domain with mail exchanger (MX) resource records containing the domain name of a host providing MTA services.

Email Servers

Small Business Server (SBS) is a line of server operating systems targeted at small businesses by bundling the operating system with a number of other Microsoft products that would normally need to be purchased or licensed separately. The most notable inclusions are Exchange, SQL Server, SharePoint and ISA/TMG (Microsoft's firewall and proxy server).
