I have done some more testing on this following http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;842273 and everything checks out. To further test what was going on, I sent a test email to sourcerservername-is@xxxxxxxxxxxx and right way I get an undeliverable message. However, if I send a test email to destinationservername-is@xxxxxxxxxxxx the email tries to go outside of my exchange organization, just as it happens with the public folders try to replicate. As per the article above I verified there is a proxyaddress for the new exchange server in the active directory. How can I get my exchange to realize that the address is local? Any pointers on where I can look to further troubleshoot this would really be appreciated.

I have been using http://www.msexchange.org/tutorials/Migrating-Exchange2000-Exchange-2003 -Hardware.html and http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;822931 as guides on how to do this. I have brought up my destination exchange server and have started the replication of the public folders. What I am seeing is that the replication is not going straight across from the source server to the destination server. Instead, the source server is trying to send an email through my mail gateway to the destination server. I have been looking for some small step or configuration I have missed but both sets of directions seem pretty straight forward. Any ideas on what I may have done wrong?
