Change from corporate workgroup to internet mail only on you Outlook
clients. Then setup the client to point to the exchange server as their
pop3 gateway and smtp to your smtp gateway.
Example: Your exchange server name is "myexchange"
Your SMTP gateways is smtp.mydomain.com
Incoming Mail (Pop3): myexchange
Outgoing Mail (SMTP): smtp.mydomain.com
If you recieve mail on your other mail server setup a second client for that
Incoming Mail (Pop3): pop3.mydomain.com
Outgoing Mail (SMTP): smtp.mydomain.com
