Forwarding request to another apache server

[tuty_richard]

I have my static IP set to my router. I am running two web servers. I have forwarding all my request on 80 port from the router to my server 1 its working fine. I need a help in setting up like this

I have domain say mydomain.com when ever I type mydomain.com in my browser it comes to my router then to my server 1 thats fine.

I have sub domain say mail.mydomain.com when ever I type mail.mydomain.com the router redirects to my webserver1. but what I need is my mail.mydomain has to be served by my server 2. How can I achieve this by using the apache running on my server 1.

Thanks
Richard
