Set up MX records -

domain.com.    IN    MX    10    pri-mx
        IN    MX    20    sec-mx
pri-mx        IN    A    10.0.0.1
sec-mx        IN    A    10.0.3.1


Then make sure exim / ${mta} on sec-mx relays for your domain (for example,
relay_domains in exim). Dont treat it as local there though.
