Hi All,
I have just setup a backup MX
My DNS entries are
10 mail.domain.com
20 mail2.domain.com
My main.cf on the mail2 is as follows
relay_domains = domain.com, $mydestination
relay_recipient_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/relay_recipients
I'm now testing out the testing out taking down postfix on the
mail.domain.com and it do get queued on the 2nd, but i see on mail.log
that mail2 tries to connect to itself as well
Oct 31 18:16:32 fs2 postfix/smtp[7557]: connect to
mail.domain.com[xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]:25: Connection refused
Oct 31 18:16:32 fs2 postfix/smtpd[7551]: disconnect from
snt0-omc2-s7.snt0.hotmail.com[65.55.90.82]
Oct 31 18:16:53 fs2 postfix/smtp[7557]: connect to
mail2.domain.com[xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]:25: Connection timed out
Oct 31 18:16:53 fs2 postfix/smtp[7557]: 466AB26C0114:
to=<u...@domain.com>, relay=none, delay=23, delays=1.9/0.01/21/0,
dsn=4.4.1, status=deferred (connect to
mail2.domain.com[xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]:25: Connection timed out)
Is this a normal behaviour?
