RE: [IMail Forum] good success with ASSP for secondary

Terry, I was told it is considered very bad manners if you have an official MX which is visible from the internet but refuses incoming mail. We found that 2nd MX usually mess up the mail transfer, adding unnecessary complexity and being one of the most common source of mail errors. Many of the 2nd MX are misconfigured. And if there really is a working 2nd MX, the sender is not aware of mail delays as the mail seems to be delivered properly. We removed 2nd MX for most of our customers and rather have the mail waiting on the sending server when there is a problem on the receivers end.

Note that I restrict connecting IPs to this server at my firewall and I would strongly encourage others to do that as well.
