Hi Guys,
This is my first post and I think its in the correct forum, so if not, my sincerest apologies...
My client current has his domain registered but no hosting account with it. The company is part of a larger parent company that houses all its mails on an internal server at its head office.
My question is as follows - if I add a new hosting account to this domain, point the DNS to my new hosting account - will / could this have any impact on their (internal) email settings? I can disable the mail server on the new hosting account, but by changing the DNS, am I risking e-mail meltdown?
I've been reading about A records / MX Records etc etc, but just wondering if its as simple as disabling the mail server on the new account...
Thanks in advance for any assistance given..
