How do I route incoming mail to one of two different SMTP hosts (one MS Exchange and one Lotus Notes) depending on the recipient's address? Eg. All incoming mail is routed to Notes unless the recipients address is joe.bloggs@anywhere.com in which case the mail is routed to Exchange. I've used a product in the past called TFS Gateway. Are there any freeware alternatives?

Build a Linux Box and use it as an email router/forwarder, sendmail is just right for that type of application, and if you have an old computer in the closet you can have this up and running in no time and basically for FREE. You can also set the Linux Box up as a firewall, DHCP server, or both, all three actually, and even run an little in house web server.

SMTP relay works with domain names only
( @anywhere.com) not with users name as you want.
That function relys on the primary MTA (message transfer agent) of your system.
If the primary MTA is the exchange one, you only need to setup the Lotus connector in the exchange system, start the service and configure where the lotus system resides. Once you accomplish this, your MTA will forward all email of joe.bloggs where he really lives (account must be only in one site / not duplicated in both sites)
