A large number of enterprise-scale servers dedicated to processing email are deployed. However, in the event of a catastrophe, email will be passed around the system by defaulting to your email provider’s regular mail servers. There will be no noticeable performance hit. Any suspect messages that were diverted to the Message Center are stored on redundant disk storage devices that are backed up.
