Description Chris Pepper 2002-06-24 05:20:01 UTC 
	In the Sendmail chapter of the Handbook, "18.5.3. How can I run a mail server on a dial-up PPP host?" provides an example of how to have an external host provide secondary MX service. Unfortunately, the hostnames were very confusing. I've tried to use more obvious names, but someone who actually uses sendmail should check my changes.

Fix: Patch provided, changing bigco.com to myco.com and smalliap.com to myisp.com, and adding some additional clarification.

I committed a slightly modified version of the patch.  The reference 
to -bd 15m was replaced by `will periodically try to' which is also 
true and doesn't depend on the exact queue timeout that the secondary 
MX might have.  Thanks for an excellent submission.
