Email server records

Hello, I am trying to setup a mail server. I have rented a domain from Bluehost and have set up the MX, SPF, A, CNAME, TXT records on their DNS manager. My config is this http://tinypic.com/r/14xid5i/9. My question is, from the time I am using Linode should I use Linode's DNS manager or it is not necessary, its the same thing which ever I use. In my domain's DNS manager page on the A record I have filled the IP of my Linode server so its going to point to my Linode server.

Thank you for your time

Hello,

You can use Bluehost's DNS manager to host the DNS records for your domain. You don't need to utilize our DNS Manager just because you have a Linode with us. We have lots of customers who host their DNS records elsewhere.
