Is there a way to get mail from a MS Exchange server that is addressed as user@host.domain.com rather than the user@domain.com so that users on host.domain.com can read their mail on that host (CentOS). (I'm assuming that Exchange needs to know about host.domain.com, somehow.)

So you want exchange to forward the mail to the centos? Or you want the centos to pickup the mail from the exchange?

Either way...just as long as the mail gets to CentOs...although, I have control over the CentOS box and NOT over the Exchange server.

Why not just have the CentOS users pop/imap to the exchange server to read mail (t-bird/mutt/evolution)?
If that doesn't work, fetchmail will pickup mail and deliver it to the localhost's mailserver. The users will want a cron job to do this on a regular basis.
Or have the CentOS users change their email profile so that a copy is forwarded to the CentOS boxes. Of course the CentOS boxes need static ip's for this to work.

A simple way (without any changes on the Exchange Server side) is to, on the Centos host, add a .forward file in the user's home directory; the contents would be the e-mail address you want the mail forwarded to.

The way mailers would know about host.domain.com is to look it up in DNS. They will try for an MX record first, then an A record if the MX doesn't exist. If that directs it to the right place, port 25 is open between them, and the receiving machine is configured properly everything should work.

Not quite. Assuming you are using sendmail, and have sendmail-cf installed, edit /etc/mail/sendmail.mc. Find the line that looks something like DAEMON_OPTIONS(`Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA')dnl Remove the "Addr=127.0.0.1," part. This will cause your sendmail to listen on all interfaces.
If your machine is directly connected to the internet, having it listen on all interfaces may not be what you want.
Ah....good catch. That worked great!
