Hi !

How can i host only email for an account and redirect via DNS the web to another server ip ?

Well, its a domain name thing. Just point the DNS to the nameservers on the web-server, and set the MX as the domain for mail, like this:

Name-servers:
ns1.domain.com
ns2.domain.com
MX Address:
other-domain.com

That's how I would do it, but there is one other way I can think of, which would be to setup a full hosting account and make an HTML forwarder to the destination, or setup a server redirect.

just point the mail.domain.com and mx record to the mail server and the www.domain.com and domain.com to the www server.
