Web server and email server in different places with same domain name

I'm a Peace Corps volunteer in Tonga and have been dropped into many
systems administration jobs over the year and this one is a rats nest.
My first look at what is happening: the clients couldn't access their
website because it was being hosted in America. The /etc/hosts file
was pointing to a local address (the linux server). I changed the
/etc/hosts file to point to webserver in america and that fixed the
problem. They can see the website, but now the email doesn't work (the
email server is local). They need to type in the IP address of the
linux server to access their email.
The biggest problem is they have the server in Tonga as tbc.to and the
website in America, that is being hosted, is also tbc.to.
I'm not sure how to have the linux server send the local clients to the
local webmail, but have all other adresses go to the webserver in
America. I'm assuming I just need to forward the request from the
server in america to the server in Tonga, but as of now I don't have
access to the server in America (they don't know the password).

In the /etc/hosts is it possible to do this?

209.58.72.83 tbc.to/webmail mail
63.247.133.36 tbc.to www.tbc.to www


209.58.72.83 is our local static address

63.247.133.36 is the server hosting the webpage

right now the /etc/hosts is

63.247.133.36 tbc.to www.tbc.to www


thanks in advance....
