Well, technically you don't need to move your DNS away from your registrar (or any other provider of your choice) — you merely need to point the MX records to your e-mail provider.

Of course, if you're using a free e-mail service like Gmail, you pretty much have to use a forwarding service anyway, since you can't just point your own domain to Google's servers and expect them to receive mail for it unless you're a G Suite user.
