    Hi All,
    Under Administration » External Servers » Messaging Setup there is only one field to configure SMTP server, any way to configure two IP addresses at the same time for redundancy purpose ?

    I have tried appending comma with the second IP, but unable to do so.

    Or should this be a new feature request ? Hehehe

    This is probably something best done with DNS and/or a Load balancer.  Lots of things/clients only support one SMTP server.

    Another option is to address the mail server on a DNS name and have multiple A records to both of your mail servers registered in DNS.
