Any active domain name that's added in a hosting account has a variety of records that allow it to perform properly. In the general case, the name servers (NS records) show where the domain name 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 such as A (IP address of the website/server), MX (email 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 having the ability to edit them, you can have your site with company A and your e-mail messages with company B, for example. This offers you more independence as you can pick the best provider for every single one of these services and you don't have to stick to a single company. After you pick a hosting company, you have to make sure that you have access to all DNS records freely because some providers have an extra fee for this function.
