Explanation

Application is configured to use only Hub1 server [sort of a hardcoded config]. If Hub1 fails then application is not able to send emails. To protect the app from the Hub1 failure you have to use Load Balancer and assign Hub1 name to it. You can configure Windows Network Load Balancing (NLB) to distribute non-Exchange messages among your Hub Transport or Edge Transport servers. Configure the Receive connector, so it only listens on port 25 on the NLB cluster address.
