Mailchannels integration clarification

Hello! I was just looking though the blog post announcing mailchannels integration and saw this line:
The only constraint currently is that the integration only works when the request comes from a Cloudflare IP address. So it won’t work yet when you are developing on your local machine or running a test on your build server.
I was wondering if that meant that mailchannels just checks if the requester's ip is cloudflare's or there is more security behind it (e.g authorization header that cloudflare adds on) Thanks in advance!

IIRC MailChannels cut support for their API agreement So that no longer works the same way

That’s something else. You can use it to send to Verified Emails So you can’t just arbitrarily email people with it
