Do you actually want your mail?

Sounds reasonable, if you have a domain not permanently connected, then
what do you expect.

Might the words "secondary" and "MX" be useful in this context, as it
certainly seems that you are asking the wrong question. If you want to
send and receive mail on today's internet, your nameservers and mail
servers should be connected as much of the time as possible. If you are
delivering mail to a non-permanent remote endpoint, then configure a
real host to actually accept your mail from the internet in the first
place...
