Probably won't work if Xtra uses a custom d/b for user authentication etc.

An incomming backup MX doesn't need access to the user database. All it needs to know is what domains (local domains) it should be accepting mail for queuing to the primary MX, and reject the rest. So yes, it would need access to their database of hosted mail domains, but not the actual user database.... Still, theres no reason why xtra themselves couldn't run their backup MX :) Regards, Simon --------- To unsubscribe from nznog, send email to majordomo(a)list.waikato.ac.nz where the body of your message reads: unsubscribe nznog
