Yeah, well keep in mind a few things:
* Until today, MailChimp was by far the cheapest option, esp. if you compare them against similar services, e.g. Campaign Monitor.
* Mailchimp is a lot more than a dumb email server...it's a list management service, it offers stats, a pretty robust API, etc. You'd have to spend a lot of time to build up those capabilities around SES.
* I'm not sure SES is meant to handle the volume MailChimp handles. (I don't mean technically, I more mean what is allowed by Amazon.)
Just a few thoughts from a pretty well satisfied MailChimp customer. (I'm also a SendGrid customer, and you can bet I'll be taking a close look at SES as a replacement for that service.)
