Backup email
Our backup email or secondary mx services will temporarily store your incoming email in the event of your primary mail server becoming unavailable. Having a backup MX server gives these emails another route by which to reach you.
A primary email server can be unavailable for a number of reasons: -
- Temporary routing problems can mean your mail cannot reach your primary mail server directly;
- The primary mail server may have crashed;
- The primary mail server may be busy and unable to accept new emails;
- Its Internet connection may be down or saturated.
There are a number of reasons a primary email server can fail and utilising backup MX services means in such an event, your mail will be temporarily diverted and stored on our backup mail servers.
