So if you were an MX for uoregon.edu, you should add > uoregon.edu to the w class. This is wrong. the Cw class is *not* for the domains you're an MX for, is for machines you are the last host. Exmaple: foo.bar.org (host): I want to receive mail to xyz@foo.bar.org on the machine abc.def.com. Then I put foo.bar.org in the Cw on abc.def.com bar.org (domain): I want to queue the mail to *@*.bar.org on abc.def.com if the final MX for bar.org is down: then I do *not* put bar.org in Cw, and set to True Ow.
