Any active domain which is added in a hosting account includes a number of records which allow it to perform properly. In the general case, the name servers (NS records) show where the Internet domain is hosted and they are set on the side of the registrar company, but on the lower level there are particular records set through the hosting company like A (IP address of the website/server), MX (e mail server), SRV (employing a domain name for non-website purposes on a certain port number such as Voice-over-IP), and so on. By having access to these records and by having the capacity to edit them, you can have your web site with company A and your e-mail messages with company B, for illustration. This gives you more freedom because you can pick the best provider for every single one of these services and you don't need to stick with a single company. As soon as you choose a hosting company, you have to make sure that you can access all DNS records freely because some providers have an extra fee for this feature.
