Temporary mail queue services?

Mailman List Mirror (Read Only)
1

Hello All,

Does anyone know of a service that you can sign up for to add as a secondary
MX to act as a mail queue if your primary MX isn't available? I'm going to
be doing a mail migration and I need a service to point my MX record to that
isn't my mail provider. I'll spare the details as to why it needs to be
different provider.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You,
Mike

Here is one that I have heard of in the past:

I have never used it though.

How long will your server be down?

Backup MX without a user list is a Bad Thing because of blowback.

And I'll stop there before someone tells me I'm off-topic. :slight_smile:

And are you sure that your users are comfortable with their email being
held by a third party that they don't know?

And we are. Inet Access or mailops would probably be better.
