    Why?  That is how you flush a remote SMTP queue for your server.  You
telnet into your secondary MX's SMTP port and issue an ETRN command.  What
that script does is on a "game on" it shuts down my SMTP server.  All mail
then hits my secondary MX.  Then on a "game off" it restarts the SMTP server
and issues an ETRN to my secondary MX so his machine knows to send all pending
messages to my machine.
