How to add a secondary smart host in Exchange 2003?

Smart Host is added like this in my Exchange 2003 EMS :

Administrative Group& Servers/Protocols/SMTP/Default SMTP Virtual Server :

In properties\Delivery\Advanced Delivery &in « Smart Host » case the ip is added in bracket : [192.20.15.60]


My questions are :

-      Could I add a secondary smart host?
-      If yes how could I add it? By adding a coma with the other ip in bracket?

Thanks guys.

Just to understand Simon, what is the difference between both way? What is wrong by doing it as I said (but you're right...many sites I read suggest as the way you said)?

Ok I see...

Just for my information:

"When you have a smart host set on the SMTP Virtual server, it forces all email to go over the smart host. That includes internal email when you are using multiple servers."

If we don't have multiple servers do internal emails go over the smart host too?

Thanks
