MX Fallback servers. ?? - Solved -

I have the following problems:

A client of mine has three external emailservers

1 Primary ( mail.domain.nl
2 Fallback ( fallback.someotherdomain.nl

To create a MX record for the primary mail server, no problems there.
I can create a standard MX record for the primary mailserver and point it to the IP of my client.

But those two fallback servers don't belong to the same zone.

So I kinda already discovered it's not possible to add those (secondary MX servers ) in the DNS via the control panel.

What would be the proper workaround for this ??

Edit the zonefile manually ?
I did that, but my changes don't show up in the panel.

Does anyone have a neat solution for this ??

 

Damn, got confused at first and solved it now.

In case of a non authoritive DNS zone: (eg. 3rd party fallback servers)

1. Just add MX records pointing to the external hostnames and you are done.



In case of a authoritive DNS zone:

1. Create new A records (domain) in Plesk and point to the external IP's (You might get a warning message that it's not a known local IP address)

2. Create necessary MX record(for created host record)
