iCloud+ Custom Email Domain: Email address active at host or iCloud?

Hello


I am considering setting up a Custom Email Domain with iCloud+. I already own my domain and pay a hosting company for domain hosting and separately for email hosting. I was hoping to cancel their email hosting and save some money.


When I went to the hosting company and asked them to cancel the email part of their service they told me that the email account would be deleted and didn't know whether I would then be able to send and receive email through Apple. I'm not sure if it's relevant but the hosting company is one.com


My question is this: does my email address need to be active at the hosting company, or can it be created in iCloud? I don't want to lose the ability to send and receive email through my custom domain.


Thanks in advance
