It sounds like you want your Internet email domain to be *only* the .email address, in which case, just set SCFG->Networks->Internet E-Mail->System Address to the '.email' address. If you want the mail sever to be "okay" with receiving mail for your other domain name, then add it to your domains.cfg file.

You'll want to set the "hostname" value for the other servers to the .cloud address, especially the web server.
