Yes it is. cPanel has a MX Entry Maintenance tool that allows you to configure MX records for any domain configured under that cPanel account.

I've uploaded a screenshot of the tool to give you more of an idea what you can expect, but you can also try using the cPanel demo to poke around and see what options there are. (cPanel Demo: http://echo.supporte...ouser&pass=demo)

Please forgive the black arrows in the screenshot, they are just covering the name of my domain.

thank you for the instructions scott.
i'm only familiar with the vdeck interface from my current webhost.
so this means that cpanel would be able to handle any basic hosting stuff vdeck could, right?

btw, am i allowed to change my php config settings?
do you have php5 and php4 as separately available options which can be used or are you only offering php5?

I'm not personally familiar with vdeck, but I can't think of any basic features that cPanel doesn't support.

We currently offer php5.2 (default) and php5.3 (optional). php4 is well past its end of life and there isn't really a good reason for anyone to continue using it. (My personal opinion, not a company position in any way)

i see. i was asking about php4 because i had written old scripts before in v4 and im having a few doubts if it'll run properly but i guess its about time for me to adapt to change. anyway, issues are going to be just minor- just me being lazy there
btw, i was asking also if i'll be able to make changes to my php.ini configuration? or do you allow .htaccess to configure custom settings per folder basis?

Sorry I missed that. Yes, you can modify many php.ini settings by placing a php.ini file in the root of your website or by using a .htaccess file.

Correction, we do not support custom php.ini but you can adjust most php settings via .htaccess:
