One Account on Google Apps or Exchange

My client has a domain with 30 mailboxes for the office workers on a standard shared server. The head of the company is not pleased with the server and wants to move to google apps or Microsoft Exchange. However, due to the cost, and due to the fact that everyone else is happy with the current server, the person wants to move only his one mailbox.

Is this possible? To point one mailbox to one of these online services, but have the rest of the mailboxes being served by the current shared server?

Thank you.

Neither answer really helped. Perhaps because I just cannot do what I want with the two services. Thank you for your help.

Google allows you to create TXT record from your DNS provider to allow you to create forwarder rule but again you have to create a forward rule in your Exchange in order send emails between your two providers, I have recently test this for 100 users out of 2000 users works fine and slowly migrating to Google Apps.

Thank you. The client is considering moving to a different shared host that does not have the same 2047mb limit per mailbox, and this might solve the problem.
