fallback_relay = hostname.example.com
this is mentioned briefly in STANDARD_CONFIGURATION_README.gz and
TUNING_README.gz in /usr/share/doc/postfix.
that also has this warning:
NOTE for Postfix < 2.2: Do not use the fallback_relay feature when
relaying mail for a backup or primary MX domain. Mail would loop
between the Postfix MX host and the fallback_relay host when the final
destination is unavailable.
