I have configured AWS SES for saving emails to AWS S3 bucket. Followed All Steps.
When i try to send verified email at first, it is saved into S3 bucket named as "AMAZON_SES_SETUP_NOTIFICATION".
It does not generate a real email file. Please help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks.

From the docs
The bucket may also contain a file named AMAZON_SES_SETUP_NOTIFICATION. You can ignore or delete this file.
This file has nothing to do with the emails you receive, you can delete the file if you want. If you have done all the configurations correctly, whenever you receive an email, you should see a new file getting created in your S3 bucket.
To setup email receiving, you need to publish an MX record as well.

I ran every step in
Getting Started Receiving Email with Amazon SES
and all went smoothly. I left the receipt rule
open so that any email address is accepted.
But when I send an email to joe#example.com (for my own example.com), no files are created in the S3 bucket.
The file AMAZON_SES_SETUP_NOTIFICATION is there all right, but nothing else.
How do I go about debugging this issue? Where does one track down what went wrong?
I assume you have a rule for "domain.com" as a recipient which will match for all emails for this domain email addresses.
Couple of things you can check:
MX record for your domain should point to SES inbound endpoint (changing MX may break your incoming emails if you're using it somewhere else already)
Is the rule-set where you have created the rule active ? There can only be one rule-set active.
S3 permission, S3 bucket requires a bucket policy to allow put object from SES.
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ses/latest/DeveloperGuide/receiving-email-permissions.html
To debug , check if you have received any bounce back.
I tried configuring AWS SES for receiving emails into my AWS S3 bucket, but I couldn't find any
Step performed -
Domain verified
Added TXT value (BigRock.in)
Added MX value in Domain's DNS (BigRock.in)
Email address verified
Created an active rule set
In S3 action bucket named(xyz-emails), AMAZON_SES_SETUP_NOTIFICATION has received.
But when I tried emailing self (using verified email address), email does not reach my S3 bucket.
Please help in case I'm missing out any step during configuration.

Look at your ARNs, it may be an error somewhere, or at a policy level
Just take a careful read at the documentation https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ses/latest/DeveloperGuide/receiving-email-action-s3.html
Can a s3 Bucket be associated to an email Id .
For example, I wanted to automatically send a report to s3 , like an automate email from Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition and the email goes and sits in the s3 bucket. Is it possible ? If Yes , what is the process to be followed and how ?
AWS S3 is simply a storage layer. You can create a file that you can then later send as an email attachment, sure.
You'd need to figure out if you can generate that email file from the Oracle BI software you mention, and then send that to S3, either directly if it's supported, or more likely through a script/program that puts the file directly on the S3 bucket you want.
I'd start reading the docs here:
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/gsg/GetStartedWithS3.html
I have configured AWS SES for sending and receiving emails I have verified my domain and created rule set by which all incoming emails will now be stored in an S3 bucket with object key prefix as email. I found the following codes for reading files from an S3 bucket:
http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/dev/RetrievingObjectUsingJava.html
I am trying to read emails. My rule for SES stores all incoming emails to my specified s3 bucket. I am trying to add the code that reads the bucket, get the emails. The next time when I read the bucket, how can I understand which emails were read before and which to read. So is there any way I could read the bucket with emails and them mak them as read so that I dont have to process them again
S3 is just storage. It has no sense of "read" vs "unread," and if you're discovering messages by listing objects in the bucket, your best solution would be something like this:
After processing each message, move it somewhere else. This could be another bucket, or a different prefix in the same bucket.
S3 doesn't have a "move" operation, but it does have copy and it does have delete... so, for each message you process, modify the object key (the path+filename).
If your emails are being stored with a prefix, like "incoming/" so that an individual message has a key that looks like (e.g.) "incoming/jozxyqkblahexample," change that string to "processed/jozxyqkblahexample." Then tell S3 to copy from the old to the new. When that succeeds, tell S3 to delete the original.
This (mostly? solves your problem, because since you only list objects with the prefix "incoming/" then you won't see those the next time -- they're now out of the way.
But, there's one potential problem with this solution... specifically, you may run afoul of the S3 consistency model. S3 does not guarantee that fetching a list of objects will immediately give you a response that reflects all of your recently-completed activity against the bucket... it's possible for objects to linger for a brief time in the object listing after being deleted... so it's still possible to see a message in the listing after you've deleted it. The chances are reasonably low, but you need to be aware of the possibility.
When SES drops a message into your bucket, it's also possible to configure it to notify you that it just did that.
Typically, a better solution than polling the bucket for mail is for SES to send you an SNS notification that the message was received. The notification will include information about the message, including the key where it was stored in the bucket. You then fetch exactly that message from the bucket, and process it, so no bucket object listing is needed.
Note that SES has two different notification types -- for small emails, SES can actually include the mail in the SNS notification, but that'a not the notification type referred to, above. Above, I'm suggesting that you investigate the possibility of using an alert notification, sent by SES through SNS to tell you about each email as it is dropped into S3.
I tried to get the INBOUND_MAIL and put it in S3 then call a custom Lambda function in AWS. But it's not working. Here is what I have done.
Verified my domain and my email address in SES
Created and a rule set to read mail and put it in s3 bucket
created group policy in s3 [GiveSESPermissionToWriteEmail]
Still it's not working. I'm receiving lot mails but none of them in s3 bucket. Any suggestion please.
After the few days recharge I finally figured out the problem.
I did everything correct but I didn't put MX record for Amazon endpoint. Even after the MX record I didn't got emails because I already have another MX record in my DNS Server. So removed previous one. now it's working perfectly.
