if the backup MX is configured exactly like the primary, then it
makes sense. but it's all too easy to get out of sync.

i usually have my backup MX accept everything and then don't treat
them specially on the primary. thus, policy is still enforced on the
primary, but there is a proper backup path *under my control* should
the primary be unreachable for whatever reason.
