DNS Help (CNAMEs and A Records)
I'm trying to set up my DNS properly so that I can have hosting through PHPFog [1] and email services using MailGun [2]. PHPFog has us redirect the naked domain to the www and then use a CNAME to point the www to PHPFog [3] and mailgun provides the MX records to use [4]. The problem I'm having is that I have no A record set up on Hover [5] because when I do, the CNAME no longer works (?), or at least it seems that way because I am no longer seeing my site from PHPFog, I'm seeing a Hover landing page. I know all the records I need, I just can't seem to get them to play nicely together. I've been told Amazon's Route 53 should be able to solve my problem, but I haven't yet figured out how. I just need to have hosting at PHPFog and email services through MailGun.

As you can probably tell, I have only a very limited understanding of DNS, so forgive me if this is a silly question.

Thank you!
Aaron
