Any active domain that is added in a hosting account includes a variety of records which allow it to work properly. In the typical 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 specific records created through the hosting company such as A (IP address of the website/server), MX (e-mail server), SRV (using a domain address for non-website purposes on a certain port number like Voice-over-IP), etc. Having access to these records and by having the ability to modify them, you can have your web site with company A and your emails with company B, for illustration. This gives you more flexibility because you can pick the best provider for each of these services and you do not have to stick with only one company. As soon as you choose a hosting company, you have to make sure that you can access all DNS records freely because some companies have an extra fee for this feature.
