Hey all...
Had a client-to-be ask me if my firm can run a mail server for their emails (15 accounts) and NOT to also run their domain server.
That is, we would run the mail.clientdomain.com site and setup their email accounts -- and the current other firm would continue to run www.clientdomain.com but without the email.
Is this possible - as I always do both....and do know know how to "rig" things that way. What might be involved in such a change too? Is there an URL you could list that would help here?
:-)

Full Version: Can I seperate the mail server from the domain server?

We do that with our website.
Our website is hosted in AZ, and our email is hosted in house.
Just make sure your MX records point to your server along with an A record for mail.yourdomain.com and you should be good to go.
