Why would you want 2 network card at the server. What it does is complicate the netowrk and make the server become a router. To keep things simple, I would use one only.

Here is my design.

Use any private address for all PC and the router ethernet interface like 192.168.1.0/24.

You need to register you domain name in order for other internet use to forward mail to your exchange server. And your ISP should you fix ip address, 1 for the router WAN, 1 for the exchange server, 1 for the web server.

Do a static network address translation at the cisco router for the exchange server & the web server. Allow only the SMTP, POP, etc for the exchange server and HTTP for the web server by access-list. All other user use dynamic address translation for internet access.

This satify your requirment and support is simple.

And the consultantion fee is US$100,000. Thank you, please come again.
