A lot of times your ISP will do back up MX service as an included service in your data circuit.  I know Time Warner Telecom does that for free.   In most cases all your backup MX provider needs to do is store and forward mail when your server comes back online.  Backup MX should be pretty simple unless your email and locations are fairly complex.
