What is so surprising is that all production mail systems have atleast one backup MX associated with them. I am sure that Suresh's book would cover that.
There's a growing school of thought which thinks this is redundant.

Typically, mail is retried for about 4 days. If you have mailserver downtime over 4 days you typically have far more than just a problem getting your mail.
