Postfix will try each IP address (as returned from getaddrinfo(3))
until it can establish a TCP connection. Postfix does not randomize
the order of these IP addresses, and it does not reconnect (and
replay a session) when an established Milter connection goes bad.

When does it make sense to run Postfix and Milters in different
failure domains? I have no experience with such configurations.
