Ah, I see.
So your primary MX should accept everything coming from your backup
MX. You can achieve this by
1. setting an ACL variable in the ACL that is run at RCPT TO time,
2. checking this variable in the ACL run at DATA time (when also the
spam checks are done).
Depending on what SpamAssassin returns and on the value the variable
contains, you can decide what to do with the message.
