I have a Domain, which is pointing to my webhost. I always used Gsuite for e-mail, so I need to change the MX Records, right?
The question is for instance, when I want to use mailerlite for sending out drip campaigns on top, is this even possible? I mean, did I need to configure another MX Record?

Can someone suggest the ideal configuration for such a case.

Have you read the MailerLite "Getting started with MailerLite" webpage? It´s all there, no need to change the MX records.

Code:

https://help.mailerlite.com/article/show/30070-getting-started-with-mailerlite

Only page I could find that say´s anything about MX is a page on GoDaddy:

Code:

https://help.mailerlite.com/article/show/29272-how-to-authenticate-a-domain-with-godaddy

So follow the MailerLite "Getting started with MailerLite" webpage and you should be fine.

Thanks for answering, but this not my actual question. I‘ve using gsuite with my domain and I‘ve successfully set up the mx records on my webhost.
The question was, can I set up another mx record for another service next to my existing gsuite configuration.

i think you can only have 1 mx set to one domain a time .

but you can use sub domain then add it to the mx record .

a sub domain when made is shown as a full domain in server and google eyes .

thisismyrealdomain.com
subdomain.thisismyrealdomain.com


hope that helps

Thanks, this was on my mind as an alternative.

What would you recommend implementing a service for email drip campaigns?
I‘m confused now, because I‘ve already set up everything for my host and my crm
