Topic: domain issue

Hello, everyone!
Community, we need your help.

Introductions:
I have a domain "doman.com"and currently have a website running on it. I need to run my mail server for this I have already rented a VDS on DigitalOcean.

How do I make a mail server with the same name user@domain.com without transferring the domain and without disrupting the site ?

I need to keep the site running separately and the mail server separately.

Can I not transfer dns of the entire domain to DigitalOcean, but only redirect mx entries for mail?

Okay, let's say it's any other provider who doesn't block anything.

Is it possible to do that?

If so, how?

Re: domain issue

Mail service mainly uses MX type DNS record, but website uses A type, so no conflict at all.
