This question was just ask recently (not sure if it was this one or one of
the other SBS NGs
Are you doing SMTP Mail or POP3 (If you have a global mailbox in pop3 will
probably still be the same issues0?
Here is what I posted in reply
-----------------------------
There would be one solution possible solution but it would require a slight
change in email addressing
You could set a mx record for "site1.company.com and a mx record for
site2.company.com and people would have have email addressed specifically to
me@site1.company.com and me@site2.company.com . Additionally you would have
to make the appropriate changes in both Exchange Servers.
--------------------------------------
Moishe Grunstein who regularly contributes in these NGs also suggested the
following
---------------------------------
Here is another suggestion if you are using SBS 2000 or greater, set the MX
record to point to SBS server1 set SBS server1 to forward unresolved
reciepients to server2

---------------------------------
In general SBS at both locations is not the right solution when you have two
locations that will have the same FQDN
