Re: two Internet address?
Yes, it is a good idea. The ISP needs to be set up to store and forward the messages (search on ETRN), your server needs to be set up to retrieve the stored messages, either over the internet or via dial-up, and the MX records cost should be set so that the connection is only used if the first two are unavailable. To find which server is not allowing the relay (I'm guessing it's the ISP) try the following: Open a Telnet seeion to port 25 of each server HELO xyz.com Mail From:[EMAIL PROTECTED] RCPT TO:[EMAIL PROTECTED] DATA test . QUIT Which one barks about relaying. If it is the ISP then remove the record for now, and work with them to set up relaying appropriately. If it is yours -- fix it. -Patrick R.

RE: two Internet address?
I guess that could offer you some fault tolerance, and I've seen it done that way. I found that one of my customers had three MX records, the lowest cost one pointed to the IMS server, but the other two pointed to an ISP that they no longer used. Had the Exchange server gone down, mail wouldn't have queued for them, but instead would have bounced immediately. So, the lesson there is if you do that be sure to remember it in case you drop the services of the secondary ISP!
