Performance Boost
And Redundancy Failure Protection For Your Online Business Mail Server Services:
24/7 continuous
email operation is critical when doing business on the Internet.
In the event of failure of your primary mail server your
email
will be automatically redirected to our backup mail secondary server and held in a
queue until your server comes back online.
Our backup secondary mail servers will also scan and clean your email of viruses
and spam.
Our backup MX
server mail service is ideal for when you are running your own mail server
and you want to ensure you do not lose any mail during unexpected downtime
or when your primary mail server is too busy!
A backup email
server service, is a group of servers on the Internet that temporarily
queues your incoming email should your primary mail server be unavailable
for any reason.
When an email client tries to send emails, it lookups the domain's DNS to
find out what the mail exchangers (MX) are for the domain. Each MX record is
given a preference number and the lowest 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.
Our mail backup service can act as your second or third priority mail server. If
your mail server cannot be reached, then your email will be routed to our
mail backup server and wait in queues. Our server will keep checking your
mail server every 15 minutes. Once your mail server is detected available,
our backup mail server will then forward the emails to your mail server. Our
mail server will keep attempting to deliver your mail to your server for 6
days or longer if you require. Mails queued in our mail server exceeding
this time will be returned to the sender.
There can be
many reasons why your primary email system may become unavailable, including
:
Mail server failure
Local network failure or Internet connectivity is down or saturated
Overloaded or unable to deal with new connections
It is down while being rebooted after a security patch
Offline due to an extended maintenance upgrade
Being Hacked/Targeted by DOS attacks or spammers, etc.
If any of these situations should occur, then email will be diverted to your
backup mail service. Without a backup service any of the following will
happen ...
Email will be bounced back to the sender
Email could be lost
A correctly configured backup MX service will ensure that you never lose an
important email.
In the event of failure of your primary mail server your
email
will be automatically redirected to our backup mail server and held in a
queue until your server comes back online.
Our
backup mail servers will also scan and clean your email of viruses and spam.
