If you have a subdomain that needs to be a mail domain and a web site, you
need an MX pointing at your mail server and address records pointing at
your web server. You can't use a CNAME because they are usually different
servers.
That's not a problem, you can have MX records at the CNAME target.
That doesn't work if the web server is at 3rd party provider A but you want
provider B's mail service not provider A's.
I don't understand.
I think it boils down to who operates the target DNS zone and how
flexible they are. It has nothing to do with who runs the web server.
Thanks,
