Whenever I have to bring my primary dns server down a lot of spam gets
through.

Correct. Declude JunkMail relies on your DNS servers to detect spam.


It appears that declude is only using one DNS server.

That, too, is correct. Given the architecture of IMail, using the backup can be problematic. Note that it has recently been recommended to only have one DNS server listed in the IMail SMTP settings.


Is there a way for it to use my secondary DNS when the primary is down?

If you have planned downtime, you can add a DNS line in the \IMail\Declude\global.cfg file. For example, if your backup DNS server is at 192.0.2.53, you can add a line "DNS 192.0.2.53" to the \IMail\Declude\global.cfg file, and Declude JunkMail will use that DNS server instead.
