Read Exchange's documentation.... Create a new virtual SMTP server...

At the moment, all of the Internet mail is hosted as POP3 on the head
office server (a Cobalt Qube).  I then use the POP3 connector for
exchange to retrieve the mail. Incoming mail is not a problem.

The problem occurs because the primary SMTP address for the branch
office site is set to @company.com.  This means that for all addresses
of format name@xxxxxxxxxxx, the exchange server only looks locally - it
will not forward them out to be delivered with the rest of the remote
SMTP email. However, if i change the primary email address to e.g.
@company.local, the exchange server stops sending mail out at all, and
the "reply to" field in any emails sent out will be incorrect.

your head office should create similar accounts to the ones that you
have and have the accounts forward all email to your server, then
everythin should work...i think,
