1 forest to root domains and 2 exchange servers

I have 1 forest with 2 root domains. In the primary domain companya.internal
we are running exchange 2003 with email addresses as companya.com, we created
a second root domain for companyb.internal & want there email addresses as
companyb.com in the second domain it has it's own exchange server so now we
have 2 exchange servers. Why is the new exchange server in domain
companyb.internal when creating new accounts give them the companya.com
address as the email address?

I want users that are created in companya.internal to have companya.com
addresses (This currently still works the way it has for years). But I want
users that are created on the companyb.internal domain to have companyb.com
address by default?

It is like exchange added the new exchange server to the companya
organization group and did not create its own companyb organization group. I
am not trying to host multiple smtp domains on one server I want them on
seperate servers the MX records point to the corasponding exchange servers
for each company's domain.

Can not find any good papers on setting up multiple exchange servers in
multiple domains in the same forest keeping the domain namespaces seperate.

Thanks for any info.
