Any active domain name that is added in a hosting account includes a variety of records which allow it to function properly. In the general case, the name servers (NS records) show the location where the Internet domain is hosted and they are set on the side of the registrar company, but on the lower level there are specific records created through the hosting company such as A (IP address of the website/server), MX (email server), SRV (employing a domain address for non-website purposes on a particular port number like Voice-over-IP), and so on. Having access to these records and by having the capacity to edit them, you could have your site with company A and your e-mails with company B, for instance. This offers you more overall flexibility because you can choose the best provider for each of these services and you don't need to stick with only one company. Whenever you select a hosting company, you have to make certain that you have access to all DNS records freely as some companies have an additional fee for this feature.
