	If the MX record in the zone points to the webserver, then mail 
should be delivered to the webserver.  If the webserver is privately 
configured to by-pass the MX record in the DNS and forward all mail 
for the domain to the Microsoft Exchange server, this sounds like 
what you want to do.  Check the FAQ at <http://www.sendmail.org/faq/>.

	I still question whether the webserver needs to do e-mail at all.
