This is only true if you configure it like that. If you do nothing to
the configuration then each server will send its own mail to the
Internet.

Depends on what version of Exchange you're talking about. In Exchange
2003 you need an SMTP connector in the Routing Group and you speficy
what the "local bridgehead" will be - i.e. the server responsible for
sending. In Exchange 2007 you're looking at a Send Connector and
specify which HT will be doing the sending.
