Fault tolerance on what?

If you mean which server the email goes out on, then you will not get that in this scenario. The only way you would get that is if you were able to add all the servers to the same SMTP Connector.

You are looking at a solution rather than the problem.

You find a solution to fit the scenario.

ok simon i got your point

I hvae the up mentioned set up right now both FE servers have its own Real IP and MX record and interner connection

now the scenario is  two RG each has one SMTP connector to the smart host

and another one connector using the BE and the FE of the other site as a remote Bhead that connector is configured in the general tap to connect this RG to the the other RG at the other site .

i need to know if i can atumatically use the remote FE server in message routing in case of the local FE failure .

if yes how? i hav'nt no problem in redesign my RG setup all i need to know is it applicable with my current setup and if not then what i need mor to become applicable
