Sorry, but I have to defind BIND. It's job is to tell you where servers
and machines are not where users are hiding.

The MTA (Sendmail e.g) is supposed to handle email/users.

You could also consider NFS mounting the mail(very ugly but workable)
and/or creating scripts
that cause people to go to their specific mail server. Additionally, the
reply to could point it to server #1 or #2.

eg. blah didi umn edu reply to becomes blah smtp two umn edu
    blarf gaga umn edu reply to becomes blah smtp one umn edu

Just a few suggestions.
