When adding a webhosting package, we always configure our mail server to accept mail for this domain (for shared hosting, but also if you have your own server or VPS). It&#8217;s possible however that you do not want to use our email server. This doesn&#8217;t cause any problems, unless email to this domain passes through our mail server. That happens for example when you have a mail form on your website that sends the data to an email address on this domain.<\/p>\n<p>What happens is that our mail server receives the email and wants to deliver the email on our system, instead of forwarding it to your external mail server. This won&#8217;t work, and the mail will bounce.
