[Declude.JunkMail] Backup MX

2006-11-02 Thread Robert Grosshandler
Hi all -- What is the current best practice for handling backup MXs? It appears to have gotten harder since the bots seem to target the lower priority MXs. It seems that the lower priority MX accepts the mail, and then passes it along to us, but since there isn't the same filtering going on on

Yeah, but. Declude Standard - no filters. Otherwise, it would work. The idea is to add enough weight to bring it over the edge. A problem with the primary down test is that Declude is doing its scanning on the primary, and it would never be down when Declude was scanning! So, Declude would hav

I was just suggesting a method of doing what he wanted to try :) I'm not generally a big proponent of indiscriminately adding points to E-mail, and this one falls in the gray area. If your backup in located at the same site, I would imagine that very few E-mails will get tagged improperly (reb
