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