Migration from Exchange 2007 to MDaemon

I have setup an MDaemon server with the correct email addresses, with each email address forwarding on to the Exchange Server.
I want to move one user at a time to Mdaemon.
The problem that I have is that when a local user on the LAN sends an email to another user on the LAN who has been transferred to MDaemon, the mail goes to the Exchange Server because that user is connected to Exchange. Is there a way that I can force the Exchange server to forward email (from local LAN users) to to MDaemon server for a user who has been migrated ?

I do want users to be able to use the same email address.
I know that MDaemon will handle forwarding beautifully, because it is doing that at present for the users that have not been migrated.  The router points all email to the MDaemon server and all users on the MDaemon server (bar the first which is migrated) have their email forwarded to the Exchange Server to which they connect.
The are approx 25 email accounts.
Is there any way, on the exchange side for users on the LAN, to force/redirect a users email to another server ?
That way when I migrate a user, I could redirect his/her email, until all users are migrated.
You would have to setup a rule to get Exchange to forward to either a company.mail type address or an address in Domain Literal format e.g., fred@[x.x.x.x].
I need a little furter help.
Say my domain is mycompany.com
My email is joe@mycompany.com
My Exchange server is 192.168.1.4
My MDaemon server is 192.168.1.5
How do I set up a rule in exchange so that mail to joe@company.com is pushed to 192.168.1.5 ?
