Any active domain name that's added in a hosting account features a number of records which allow it to work properly. In the typical case, the name servers (NS records) show where the domain is hosted and they're set on the side of the registrar company, but on the lower level there are particular records set through the hosting company such as A (IP address of the website/server), MX (e mail server), SRV (employing an Internet domain for non-website purposes on a certain port number like Voice-over-IP), etc. With access to these records and by being able to edit them, you may have your web site with company A and your e-mail messages with company B, for example. This offers you more overall flexibility as you can choose the best provider for each of these services and you don't need to stick to only one company. After you select a hosting company, you have to make sure that you can access all DNS records freely because some providers have an additional fee for this function.
