mail server will serve; for example, Mall.acme.east.com.

enter the name of the mail server that will serve your domain.
Optional:
If you are designating more than one external mail server for the domain,
use the Precedence field to set the delivery priority among the
mail servers.
Note:
The lower the number in this field, the higher the priority. For example,
if you have two mail servers, you could assign a delivery priority of
3 to one server and 4 to the other. Mail would be delivered to the precedent
3 mail server first. If delivery fails there, it would be delivered to
the precedent 4 mail server.
