Anybody using amazon SES to send out self emails? Is it even viable to use for sending only single digit emails (to replace gsuite) or do they always land in spam folder? Any thoughts?
- technothrasher 5y agoI just started playing with it to get my exim server to send my outgoing mail through. It seemed like AWS had a bit of trouble understanding that I was only looking for something low volume and transactional. They kept wanting to know how I handled unsubscribe requests. But I finally got them to ok the account (with a 40,000 email/month email limit, after I told them 100/month would be fine). After I sent a few test emails and looked at their spam scores, they were ok enough to probably get through most of the time but not great. I then tried SendGrid and they were both much easier to set up and the test messages got much better spam scores.
