Cool. Thank you for the pointer. I have to do more reading, but from first glance, I guess the idea would be to use this milter on the backup MX server. So for example, I would install milter-bcc to the backup MX server so that any mail in the queue is bcc-ed to my other mail account (which would be sent directly if the other mail account server is responding). Am I anywhere close? Thank you. RDB -- Reuben D. Budiardja Dept.
