1. In Exchange administrator, create a custom recipient.
2. Select "Internet address" for the address type
3. Enter the address at the other ISP...for example jdow@isp.com
4. Enter the Last, First names, the display name and the alias for your system...for example Doe, John, John Doe, jdoe
5. That's it. When someone sends a message to jdoe@yourcompany.com, it's automatically forwarded to jdoe@isp.com.

Hope this helps.

Create a custom recipient for the new email address. Then select the mailbox that you wish to forward and select the Delivery Options tab. At the bottom - Alternate recipient - select the Modify button, select the new SMTP address. You can have the email go to both if you check "Deliver message to both"
