The secondary server is under attack by spammers so its access was shut down. For some reason the spammers thaink there are tens of thousands of people with a kym.net address so they send every name starting with [EMAIL PROTECTED] and that is thousands and thousands directly to the secondary MX for relaying to kym.net.
This is slowing down the secondary tremendously by queueing so many mails. A new secondary is being sought.
