Exchange 2010 setup multiple domain emails

I hope this is clear. I have my new exchange server setup on domain apple.com. My users in the apple.com domain will have an AD account and email address.

We also have three other email domains with no link between the apple.com domain and these other domains. Some of my apple.com AD users will have these other email domains. AND I will have some users needing these other domains and NOT be added to the apple.com domain during the mailbox setup.

I need all of these accounts to be setup in Outlook 2010 as MAPI accounts so they each have a complete and seperate group of mailbox folders. Send/Reply email must come from that mail domain and not from the apple.com domain.

I'm trying to setup a new mailbox for grape.com but when I select a new mailbox and new user Exchange is requiring me to enter the AD info for the apple.com domain. It doesn't seem to be able to just create a new email box for the completely seperate domain.

I have a domain accpeted list with a * so it'll accpet all domains.

Second, when I create the user I get the box below. You can see the "new user" box is seting up a domain user in my Apple.com domain. I don't want this to happen...?

I understand, but when I create the mailbox, it's creating a new AD user in my apple.com domain. I don't want a user to be created since this person already exist in another domain.

Yes, the user account is in another domain that is not part of my trust relationship. We've purchased a new company with about 80 employees and I don't want to create a bunch of new AD users in my current company since they already have their own AD.
is there any exchange server in the other domain?

No, they have a hosted service right now. We'll be migrating their email info after the exchange server is setup correctly.

Difficult to award points because the solution is a mixed bag. Basically Exchange won't let you create separate domain structures like a hosting company can without that hosting license which is tens of thousands of dollars.

The solution is to create an OU and add users with unique names such as in the apple.com domain I would have an OU called OrangesEmail. I create UserA-OE in the new OU. Then create the mailbox for oranges.com for that person. Now when UserA-Apple opens their outlook to create a new exchange account they log in as the UserA-OE account.

This creates a separate setup of complete email folders instead of combining the emails in one folder set which I can't have.
