Hi Scott If they want to receive mail for my2town.com from the Internet then they would need to register that domain, make sure they have an MX record for my2town.com that is published on a public DNS server that points to their external IP address, then they can add the my2town.com to their Recipient Policy in Exchange and set it as the Primary, and that should be it.
