OWA issue after moving mailbox

My inside network has a different domain name than what it's seen as by the
internet.  For example, internal domain is abc.com, but on the internet it's
seen as aabbcc.com.  I recently moved a couple of mailboxes from server1 to
server2.  Before the users would go to https://server1.aabbcc.com/exchange
and were able to get to their email.  Now when they try that, they are
resirected to https://server2.abc.com/exchange.  How can I get it to direct
them to https://server2.aabbcc.com/exchange instead?

Thanks,
Mike

You can't do this in your current configuration.
If you have one server open to the Internet "server1" and you move a
mailbox to "server2" then you must expose "server2" to the Internet or
alternatively bring up a "Front End" server and point everyone (on the
Internet) to it because it will automatically take care of the
direction. What you think is the problem, isn't.
See www.microsoft.com/exchange/library for some information on Front
End / Back End Scenario & Topology considerations.
