Re: Secondary Mail Server/MX Record

easydns does this for any domains you have with them. They provide the backup MX record (unless you wish to take that away), then when your mail server is down, they spool up the mail and deliver it to you when it is up again.

Very useful.

Only one down-side: if you are deny spamming IPs or whatever, the spammers will sometimes try the MX backup mail spool instead .. which may accept the spam, then pass it on to you, getting past your IP bans.
