That depends. If your mail addresses are of the form [EMAIL PROTECTED], you will
need either the host xyz.com "pingable" and running an SMTP server, or an
MX record for xyz.com pointing to mail.xyz.com.
If your mail addresses are [EMAIL PROTECTED], you will be fine without MX
records - if the host mail.xyz.com is running an SMTP server.
If you want _real_ help, give us the _real_ domain names.
