Basic help - what is zoneedit providing me?

Sorry for the noob-level question, but I'm trying to understand what we (a non-profit I volunteer with) are using zoneedit for? What service is it providing? I think it's just email forwarding, but I'm not certain. Our domain is registered through another service and it's hosted elsewhere too. However, I see that we have "stealth forwarding" setup on our domain, but I don't understand what that's doing or why we need it. I think I just need someone to walk me through some of this stuff so I can gain an understanding.

I found your account for eeutah.org -

Zone Edit is your DNS provider- this is the routing service that points a domain name at different hosts- web hosts or email. It is basically making the domain name function online.

Stealth forwarding is a DNS record that points the domain to another domain name's web site.
Mail forwarding is also running on the Zone Edit mail server.

The domain is only currently functioning though the Zone Edit Name servers- which are providing the DNS records.
If you entered a DNS record at the Registrar on their DNS panel - it is not connected because you are not using their Name severs.
If you want to disconnect the Zone Edit DNS service- then remove the Zone Edit name servers at the Registrar- and delegate their Name servers- You can then set up the URL forwarding and email forwarding through them.

The Zone Edit service is a free service.
