Hi, I'm setuping a new mail server. before the cpanel setup I have to setup a hostname... what is better to use mail.domain or host.domain ?

  It does not matter, as long as it's a fully qualified domain name and it resolves to your server's main IP.

  Personally, I would not use straight up mail. for the domain, though its certainly legal to do so.
