You can include the hostnames of multiple mail servers and assign different priority levels for each one, allowing you to set primary and backup mail servers. The hostname with the lowest priority will be used first. If the mail server with the highest priority (0, 5) fails for any reason, the server with the next highest priority is tried next (10, 15).
