Hello,
 
a customer of mine wants to put an Exchange server in a data centre to act as a secondary (backup) mail server to their main one in the office.
Is this done by adding an additional MX record with lower priority or is there more to it?
 
Their main mail server is non Exchange if it matters.

Yes, you would need a 2nd MX record, but Exchange itself would need to be configured as a 'store and forward' store.

This does not appear to have much to do with SBS, you would probably do well to move the query to an Exchange related forum.
