Depends on what email address they're going to be using. You indicated
you wanted mail to be handled by ohiocounty.net". Unless you have an
arrangement with your upstream feed for them to hold your users mail
(which I doubt if you're using only smtp), you'd need to setup a MX
record for this domain.
ohiocounty.net. MX 10 mail
I'm not sure if the way you have it is legal, I use the syntax in my
example at work (the trailing dot means not to append the default
domain).

I suspect my original solution (with the masquerading and
/etc/sendmail.cw) is one suitable for your situation.
.. If speed scares you, use Windows.
