Not a thing.
You'd be much better off asking about this stuff somewhere like
comp.mail.sendmail - it's fairly
ve
it in relay_domains.
When the mail is being delivered to the primary host you have to arrange
some for the secondary to get access to the mail, with IMAP being a
common mechanism.
If most mail is being delivered to the secondary MX that probably
indicates that there's poor connectivity to the
installer differentiates between static and dynamic
connections, but it supports both. The slink installer doesn't know
anything about DHCP, though you can normally get around this by getting
an IP allocated in Windows and then claiming this is your static IP for
the purposes of the installer.
