I haven't seen SES yet, but if it's anything like the rest of the AWS suite, they're not entirely comparable. Amazon's products are complex, and their statistical reporting focuses on the bottom line numbers, rather than detailed, action-based reporting. For example, Postmark app provides a nice interface for managing bounce emails. From the SES FAQ, it appears that they simply forward bounces on to an address that you specify. One could build a Postmarkapp-like service on top of SES, but SES is not a direct replacement for Postmarkapp.
