Hello all!
I’m planing to setup a mx backup with Mailcow (for a primary Mailcow mx). I have some questions and doubts… If you could help me see things a bit clearer, that would be great.
Mx backup spec
I don’t think the server supporting this secondary service needs to be very powerful: no SOGo and “minimal” storage (it will only relay).
Do you think my assumptions are right, or am I missing something? What do I need to think about when sizing this server?
Domains creation
The creation of domains on the primary server is done in self-service mode by my customers. Now, the relayed domain will have to be created each time on the secondary server too.
What advice would you give me to automate this procedure? On the primary server, is there a “trigger” (at creation) that I could use to make an api call to the secondary? Or, do you think this “orchestration” should be carried out externally?
It’s possible (although I’ve read it carefully) that I’ve missed such information in the documentation. If so, please let me know.
Thanks in advance for all your tips
Pierre
