    Hi guys!
    i need your help here...

    I have 2 servers and 1 domainname

    The domainname is currently linked with nameservers to a hosting account on server 1.
    Now my question is, how can I create a mailbox (info@mydomain.com) on server 2 and send/receive email on that one, without having to update the domein nameservers so they point to server 2?

    Anyone any idea?

    You can configure the mail server at server 2. And then you can add the MX record for your domain pointing to the server 2. This way it is possible to use the separate servers for website and emails.
