On backup mx server, you should set the IP address of primary mx as relay server, and set 'backupmx=1' like below:
USE vmail; UPDATE domain SET transport='relay:[xx.xx.xx.xx]:25',backupmx=1 WHERE domain='xyz.com';
Hi i've done what you say but if i turn off the primary server i cannot receive emails..
I updated dns on godaddy adding:
A HOST: backup.mydomain.com ----> point to my backup server
MX: backup ----> point to backup.mydomain.com
On the backup server (that run ubuntu) i set as hostname backup and as hosts 127.0.0.1 backup.mydomain.com etc. etc.
But it doesn't work!
Where is the error?
Thank you
