What's the purpose of targetting the > secondary MX? interesting questions. My own experience is that it depends on the type of spam(mer)s. Some prefer secondaries only, some prefer primaries, some try both. Just had a look at one of my domains stats. Around 75~80% hit the secondary MXs (and from those, only 10% max also try the primary). The primary also get it's own load of (unique) spam so I guess they are coming from different spam-tools. And BTW, ~99.9% of the smtp cnx on the secondaries are spam, hopefully almost all blocked. My numbers (from m-greylist) may be a little bit off because I have so many different anti-spam mechanisms running at the same time, some before milter-greylist. /Fabien
