I have a couple of domains registered through telivo, and the DNS services hosted else where, I currently have the mx records pointing to my own mail server. However should it ever go off, i am stuffed. Is it ok to use the plusnet backup mx servers the same as I have for my plusnet domain name.

You'll have to get the domain hosted on your account otherwise the email servers will not know what to do with emails that arrive and will bounce them.

The problem with PN MX backup is that you have to use the finger commend. I use http://www.dnsmadeeasy.com/s0306/prod/mailbk.html at $12.95 per year

It looks like he's already using finger for the plusnet domain name.
