Thanks to all who responded,

Most of the replies almost talked about the same steps, I chosed one
them here:

You need to do 2 things:

        a) In your BIND database, you must have an MX record for
           DOMAIN.NAME that points to XYZ.DOMAIN.NAME:

                DOMAIN.NAME. IN MX 10 XYZ.DOMAIN.NAME
                                                  IN MX 20
BACKUP.DOMAIN.NAME

        b) On xyz.domain.name, you need to edit your sendmail.cf to
           include "domain.name" in the "w" class (the line beginning
           "Cw"):

                Cwdomain.name

My original posting was :

How to direct mail sent to the (DOMAIN.NAME) to be recieved directly to
the mail server.
For example, user ABC has an email account on mail server
XYZ.DOMAIN.NAME.
Instead of sending mail to ABC_at_XYZ.DOMAIN.NAME, we need mail to be sent
to
ABC_at_DOMIAN.NAME, and still mail server XYZ can recieve it.
We are running DNS Server on DU4.0D. Is there any modifications to be
done to
the hosts.db ?
