as thread says, is it possible to park a domain, (at Uniregistry for example), while having an email address for same domain?

Only way I can think of might be through a forward but @Uniregistry only seems to authorize domain through namservers.

It is possible with ParkingCrew.
A record for root, CNAME - for www/*.

it's also possible with other companies such as voodoo bodis sedo... using a record A and the MX you want.

Bodis and Sedo don't provide any IPs... so you can't use A record there.

Regarding Voodoo - I don't know.

You can find them for yourself eg:
Code:
nslookup ns1.sedoparking.com

=> 209.200.164.69
(But they could change in the future)

Sedo has many IPs in rotation...

the correct ip for sedo 91.195.240.135

And the quoted IP is IP of their nameserver... it is useless.

Their parking servers have tons of various IPs and very short TTL.
Such pointing is very unreliable.

I regularly get the internal server errors and even downtimes using Sedo...
After they moved into new DC.

Bodis IP is relatively stable...
It can be used but officially they don't offer A pointing.

It is possible but involves forwarding. create php file landing forwarding.

Would the NS go in the php file, do you have a sample script?
