Subject: backup MX

Hello.
I'm trying to figure out how to set up postfix to work as a mail backup for my
home network. I have set up one box as primary mailer (mx pref. 10) and another
one with mx pref. 100. The DNS is correct set up I think. But now I want to
shutdown the primary one, and then send a lot of mail to my domain, just to see
that the secondary one takes over the mail and queue it for a while. I have a
/etc/postfix/main.cf that I dont think is right. So therefore,
1) Can some one with a similar setup send me a working main.cf that I can
study?
2) Can someone tell me how to controll how often postfix should try to send the
mail from the queue on the secondary mailer to the primary one.

Best wishes
Gunnar.
