Hi!!!

Well the subject is not correct at all....... sorry....

What i want to do is the following:

---- First Part ---------

I have configured DNS mx register this way:

abc.com. mx 0 mail1.abc.com
abc.com. mx 20 mail2.abc.com

mail1 and mail2 are diferent machines with (obviously) diferent IPs.

So ALL the mail go to mail1, and if this machine is down go to mail2.

---- Second Part ----------

How MUST i configure the second server (mail2) to accept the emails of
domain abc.com and try (again and again) to send to first server (mail1)
until this server (mail1) is up......

So when first server (mail1) is down, second server (mail2) can get the
emails (for unlimited period of time) and when first server (mail1) is
up, second server (mail2) send all received emails to first server
(mail1).

---- Posible solution --------

Can i do this with a mailhub configuration????

If so, can any you explain better how to configure a optimal mailhub???

If not, any idea????



NOTE: send me a copy of your responses, i am NOT subscribed to the
list.



THANKS!!!!!!!!
