My DNS records exposing IPs that are proxied through Cloudflare

Security
#1

I’ve recently transitioned over to Cloudlare for my DNS and Access needs. As such, I’m dabbling my way around all the great tools that Cloudflare provides.

Although, I am proxing my IP through Cloudflare DNS for security, I also have to expose my IP via A & CNAME DNS records in order to support a mailserver.

I don’t believe that I can configure Cloudflare DNS such that exposing my IP can be prevented. But I wanted to check with the eXperts here at the community to get a authoritative response.

Cheers.

You are right, mail related records cannot be proxied as the proxies won’t handle them.
