Hi list,

Robert: thanks for your quick reply.
Sorry for being vague - This is for internal outgoing mail only (my linux
servers->my postfix relay server->ISP mailserver).
I would like loadsharing (maybe real balancing is not needed for me...)
between my linux server->my postfix relay server.
My guess is I could do this (atleast) 2 ways:
1. DNS RoundRobin
2. MX with equal weight

Any thoughts: e.g. will mail actually retry delivery for all IP's listed in
DNS RR if one is not responding, or will it just directly return to
sender=local linux user without trying any of the other IP's...) ?


Thanks in advance :-) !
