But how is that transparent to the clients? That was a criteria for Cosme. And I think he means clients trying to send mail. If mx1.domain.tld is off which is used by the clients for SMTP, how does it automatically switch to mx2.domain.tld without user intervention? If other MTAs send to domain.tld, then they will use the available MX, well. But as said before in this thread: properly configured MTAs will retry to deliver up to 5 days at least. > Matthew Miller mattdm@xxxxxxxxxx <http://www.mattdm.org/> Alexander -- Alexander Dalloz | Enger, Germany | GPG http://pgp.mit.edu 0xB366A773 legal statement: http://www.uni-x.org/legal.html Fedora Core 2 GNU/Linux on Athlon with kernel 2.6.11-1.14_FC2smp Serendipity 21:55:07 up 2 days, 21:27, load average: 0.59, 0.31, 0.21
