Yes, it is 'msiscales.com'. The second MX record is supposed to be a backup when our server is down. The mail should be coming to us first, I think that's reflected by the priority within the DNS MX record. Which as you say, when our server goes down, all mail goes through our backup and we get bombarded with the spam and there's nothing I can do but try and filter it. Under normal circumstances, all mail should come to the main server in question where I want it to be rejected.
