Re: [Exim] Redirection to MS Exchange from exim on Linux

Should I still have the entry for MX record in DNS Database for both mail

servers like this?
xxx.com    MX preference = 10, mail exchanger = mail.xxx.com
xxx.com    MX preference = 50, mail exchanger = mail2.xxx.com

Thanks Jim for your previous help.
