I'm not working for an ISP but for company helping to implement
business customers to set up their own MX. I allways advise my
customers *not* to use any external backup MX.

As you said, it is not necessary as external mailsystems queue anyway
and we set up redundant MTAs. And as most current anti-spam systems
depend (not exclusively of course) on the IP address connecting to the
system, it is not very helpfull to see your backup MX connecting to
you.

HTH.

Best regards, Matthias
