Hi,
I will shortly be installing two new 2003 Exchange machines at two sites on
the same domain receiving email for the same domain e.g. @email.com. Both
sites have a DC and both DC's are catalogue/dns servers. The sites are
connected by a 512k VPN to each other.
I have installed a couple of 2003 Exchange servers before but never multiple
servers on the same domain and have no idea as the best way to go about it.
Any pointers/advice would be greatly appreciated.

As long as you have local GCs it shouldn't be any different then installing
them in the same site. Make sure dns and replication works, and allow for
the forestprep schema changes to replicate to dc on remote site before
installing.

Ok, what I don't understand is when an email comes into Site1 server that
needs to get to Site2 server how does it actually get to Site2 server?
Do they automatically synchronise because they are on the same domain? or do
I have to make some changes?
If they do synchronise will this mean that they always have the same data
store?

Email from exchange in site 1 gets to exchange in site 2 using smtp.
This assumes both exchange servers are in same Routing Group and have
connectivity to each other.

The other option is to create a separate Routing Group for site 2 and move
the Site 2 exchange server to that RG. Connect both routing groups with a
Routing Group Connector. You typically do this if there isn't enough
bandwidth between 2 sites - you can control the message flow over a
Connector - schedule message transfer, decide who can send/not send... this
also requires both sites can communicate with each other.
