Newbie-Domain Name MX Records & Email Questions

Hi All,

I bought a Domain name and changed the DNS to my hosting account. It asks if I want to change MX records. What exactly is the purpose of MX records and why would one want to change them?

Also, they are asking to set-up the email there at the domain register, but I thought I handled all email at my hosting? If there's a choice, what's the best way? Or do I have to do both?


Thanks,

Jen
