Title: Setting up backup mail server
Post by: Dennis L on August 29, 2003, 06:51:55 AM

I have two E-smith SME servers running two different enterprises, and would like  to use the the alternate servers as a backup mailserver.

I understand how MX records and priorities work, but would like to konw if anyone has set this up before.

As the mail domains are different in each server will I need to set up virtual domins on each.

Any comments or help is greatly appreciated.

Best regards
Dennis
