Default Re: [courier-users] Re: Automatically use secondary MX host if primary

One difficulty here is that you're offering suggestions to "improve
Courier" rather than actually explaining what your problem is. That's
somewhat offensive to a developer, see:

http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html#goal

Sam isn't going to want to change a single line of code until you
explain what the problem actually is and why Courier should be the one
to fix it. You should start by answering some of these questions: What
do the client's MX records actually look like, are they equal weight or
primary/secondary? What exactly happens when Courier tries to connect
to the primary? How about a session log of a server connection? What
delivery failures are users getting? Any custom configuration on your
end? etc.
