Default Receiving from more than one SMTP

Hello,

I have difficult requirements in this installation.. I have domain.com hosted in US which is for x company world wide, on each country there is mail server, I will assume that the x, y and z are the countries.

I wanna the employees of x country to be able to send and receive the @domain.com from their server, (for sure the emails that sent by the staff only) at the same time we need the download also the emails that have been sent by gmail, hotmail, and yahoo etc.. from US Server.

The main SMTP must be the US server. and each country must receive from the local server (emails that are on the same domain.com) and from the US server (for the emails that are not on the domain).

how do I configure the mail server of each country in order to get the emails from the local SMTP and Global?

Cheers,

Why not each country to have a TLD eg. country.domain.com and no associated external MX. Point the MX record for domain.com to your US server so all email will be received there. Run a split view DNS so that internally you have a MX for your countries and email can be forwarded to the respective place. On the country server make its use domain.com as the primary with a alias of uk.domain.com so that any accounts created will email out with @domain.com yet still be able to received the forwarded email for @country.domain.com ?

Good idea I would appreciate if you can provide more information about it.

They wont to forward any email to the local server in order to decrease the bandwidth, Limited internet bandwidth for the local country.

Please note that the @domain.com is public and any one of the staff at any country just be reply.

Cheers,
