You cannot proxy MX config, since Cloudflare is not your Mail Server/Provider lol. There is no way to "hide" MX record from public eyes, I would recommend grabbing cheap VPS and setting up your own Mail Server and simply use its IP, which must not be the same as your A record (for security purposes)

Hope this helps.

Instead, use mail providers like..- sendgrid , sendinblue or mailgun... they provide their shared(free) or dedicated ip as per plans. " with this you can change MX record to above providers and hide your main server ip.

None of these providers are free. Mailgun only allows a sandbox domain, the others have major limits. They only good for testing. Yandex is the only one provider that hides the server ip.

What type of host are you using ? Are you using a Cpanel enabled host ? Than you can use the cpannel cloudflare plugin and it's address as an MX record in CF.

Can you afford 1 Euro per month for 5 email accounts of 5 GB each hosted by Zoho ? ( https://www.zoho.com/mail/zohomail-pricing.html?src=zmail ) - than it might be a solution for you.

Just use AMZ ses cheap as free money.
Also for mail provider AMZ Work mail...
And
Route 53 domain management with the 20ms world wide latancey
Faster then cloudflare.....
But no dDos.
You need to configurate yourself 6g 7g failtobn and UFC by yourself and may buy DDOS quotation from your provider.
