It's not a technical question, it's just a business topic. If your users can wait 24+ hours, it has sense. Otherwise you have better to build up some kind of HA-cluster. It may be space-separated (one node in your home, other one in your friend's home). How it can be done is another question, competely a technical one, but not for exim's mail list. -- Eugene Berdnikov -- ## List details at https://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
