I doubt that; much more likely they'd bill you more and keep going. You should definitely ask. > --MX record 0 pointed at the managed ISP > --MX record 0+ on my email servers The problem with that is that spammers (and some viruses) send emails to ALL mx records for a domain, and some for A records as well; when my friend/client started using the company I wrote you about offlist he had to actually change his own mailservers so they'd no longer accept mail on port 25 and set up a different port, to significantly see his spam/virus load go down. And then of course the company he used had to forward email to him on a different port. > And if the managed box went down, mine would then automatically > handle the email, right? Sure, but then you'll still be getting lots of spam and viruses because of the other MX records. > Also, I'm assuming that a such a service > would not affect my working http://mail.domain.com/exchange OWA > (Outlook Web Access) setup. It shouldn't; changing MX records and port 25 shouldn't change http, which runs on port 80, or https, which runs on port 443.
