Re: [AMaViS-user] need for third relay server?

Well I think I'm going to create three anyway. Right now if one goes down, the single remaining server wouldn't be able to process all of our email no matter what. Atleast if I create a third, one can go down without us ceasing to function. :) So its a good decision anyway :) Thanks, Matt
