How do I leave mail at the registrar while serving the web from host?




I am using Network solutions. I would like to point my domain to a website. I have both the NameServer1 and NameServer2. However, I would like to keep my email routing as it is now. I believe I need to do it through the A records but not sure exactly how (which field correspond to nameserver 1 and 2). Please advise, where do I enter the NamerServer1 & 2 in the advanced settings so that I don't affect the MX records for my email.

Also, I DO have the IP add dresses corresponding to the two name servers.

Any help is appreciated.

Give the new hosting company all your current MX entries for your domain if you want to maintain your current (not use the new) e-mail routing.

When you change your nameservers at Network Solutions you will be passing ALL other DNS control over to the NSxx.WORxxxx.com servers. This generally includes website and e-mail routing. Hosting companies often provide their own e-mail servers and site hosting as a package.

I guess you have shared hosting.
You only need to set the two name servers which are provided by your shared web hosting provider in your control panel of Network Solutions.

Here is the procedure for this: onlinehelp.microsoft.com/en-in/office365-smallbusinesses/gg549197.aspx
You don't need to do anything else. Just wait for 4-48 hours then dns will have propagated properly.

Nothing else you'd need to do for shared hosting.
