Technical Background
When an email client tries to send emails, it looks up the domain's DNS to know what the mail exchangers (MX) are for the domain. Each MX record is given a preference number and the lowest preferences becomes the primary mail server. Mail delivery is first attempted on the lowest preference number MX. If the delivery fails, it tries the second lowest preference MX and so on. If no mail servers can be reached then the mail will be bounced back to the sender.
However when you use the Hosted Power backup mx server solution, the sender will try it automatically when your own e-mail servers are unavailable. Our backup mx server will store all mail and forward it as soon as your primary mx server comes back online.
