Could not agree more. Sans mx2 for 12 years now. Most mailers retry  
for 12 hours. I can publish a secondary in DNS in under 12 hours if i  
see it going that bad.

I think my hardest argument is clients who "check my work" against any  
of the broken DNS reporting tools that mark missing secodary MX as as  
bad thing.
