Since this is your thread you can identify it any way you like, but it seems since your second post we have been heavily discussing moving the MX. The key is whether you're taken care of yet or not?

I think that my answer about keeping your NS at Namecheap while moving the MX elsewhere used to be technically possible and may be possible yet at some host -- but for practical reasons nowadays that tends to be disallowed because the MX host needs to limit any "open relay" activity. In any case, it doesn't seem ZoneEdit allows this now. On some other threads about reliability some of us have talked of posting multiple MX servers from different providers, but that won't work if both providers require your NS1 & NS2 records before they will handle your domain.
