Monitor 2nd mail server behind natted router

[Assaf Flatto]

Unless you have two servers with the same local ip - you shouldn't have any problems.

i assume that the routing rules you have between routers know which range is behind which router , 
so all you need to do is monitor the second mail server as a regular server on the your network.

Can you easily access or ping the server ?
