What makes you think it's a joke? I'll admit, I have a backup MX at the site where I work, but that's only for political reasons. A backup MX's job is to accept mail when your primary system can't, but remote sites are going to queue mail and retry delivery anyway. You're not going to hurt site reliability by taking down you backup MX. In practice, backup MXs are just spam targets these days. Most sites that still have them don't protect them as well as their primary systems, so that's where many spammers deliver their mail. Drop it and concentrate your efforts on one system. You'll be happier with the results. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
