Would the recommendation be to install NEW Exchange servers in a new domain in the same forest and then migrate the mailboxes?

My boss and I have been asked to change the netbios domain name so that it matches. We want to go one better to rename the domain to a generic domain name, so that if and when the company changes names again, we won't have to go through this again. We have an exchange 2007 system, with 2 mail servers and 2 hubs. What are my options to rename the exchange server? Do I have to rebuild? TIA Luke L.
