Jumped into an organization, have no idea how things are set up, I'm
just "ok" with linux/unix commands, etc. They are running 2 linux
boxes for mail - 1 for smtp, the other for pop3. Do to a long
complicated story, i need to sever the ties between them. So when an
@doe.com person sends email to another @doe.com person, i need the
smtp server to shoot it out to the internet first, not dump it into
the local pop3 server box. How do I do that? Thanks.

Well, your smtp server will have something in its configuration that
tells it that doe.com is local; you will have to remove that something.
