Heya Swinog

We have business customers with an own mailservers asking us to provide a 
backup MX for their mailserver.
Usualy we deny such request, because such a backup MX would bounce all spam 
which cannot be relayed, and anyway, the sending server usualy queues the 
email usualy about the same amount of time a backup mx would queue it. So we 
see not advantage, but a big disatvantage.

Now some of our customers complain that 'all other ISP' offers such services.

So I wanted to know your opinions:

- Why would business customers _need_ their ISP to operate a backup MX for 
them?
- Why can you avoid the disatvantage to generate a shitload of bounces when 
operating ab backup MX?
- Is it true, that most ISP offer this kind of service?

Mit freundlichen GrĂ¼ssen
