You cannot point one domains MX records to other domain. Just consider what would happen if you had
jason@firstdomain.com and you expect it to go to
jason@seconddomain.com ?
This wont be possible.
You need to setup account for mail.firstdomain.com on your server and provide him with the IP of server. He will need to point A records of mail.firstdomain.com to your servers IP and his MX records should point to main.firstdomain.com
You will need to create all necessary mailboxes for firstdomain.com on your server.
firstdomain.com is one that you don't host.
seconddomain.com is one that you host.
