Subject: [exim] Pass mail to backup host if first delivery attempt fails
Hi,

I have a requirement to run my "primary" mail servers spools from
ramdisk, and what I'd like to do it this:

For outbound mail I'd like to try the dnslookup router for the first
attempt as usual, if for any reason this fails I'd like to pass those
messages off to some "secondary" servers which are more resilient for
processing.

fallback_hosts doesnt appear to be what I need, so looking for
clues/examples on how to achieve this.

TIA,

Darren
