"Primary" and "backup" are a fiction. What makes your primary server "primary?" You can probably come up with a list: * It's listening on the IP addresses to which your MX records point * It isn't configured to forward anywhere * It allows SASL authentication * ... You should make such a list; when you're done, title it, "things I need to do to the backup server to make it the primary."
