>Apart from an MX record, how are secondary mail servers set up?
They must be told the restricted list domains they are to relay mail for. The backup MX must not be an open relay. When you manage the backup MX, you can have the backpup MX(s) relay the mail directly to the ip address of the mailbox server, when the primary MX is a relay-only gateway.
