Ok, sorry I meant virtualdomains.
As I said I would like a backup in case example.com AND the queue for it
fail.
This I've done with the MX records.
One disadvantage is, since the domain must be in rcpthosts on the 3rd
machine to receive anything, *if* mail is sent using this machine as
outgoing mail server, it doesn't even get sent to example.com, even though
it's higher preference...
Got it?
