I want to be able to send messages using SES. My sender's email is noreply#mydomain.com . The domain and sender's email are verified identities in SES. Now whenever my app sends an email, I don't want the receiver to be able to reply to the email I sent. How can I configure the sender email so that it never receives an email as reply from the user?
Ok so this is going to sound simple but follow this guide. There is one step though I struggled with which I got lost for hours on. Guide
Make sure when you're creating the MX record, you need to add the inbound SMTP as well as the normal email smtp.
10 inbound-smtp.us-east-1.amazonaws.com
11 email-smtp.us-east-1.amazonaws.com
You need to add both in order to receive email as well. Then, your rule sets will work as intended.
I am currently using AWS SES to send emails to my users. However, it appears that my users who use outlook / Microsoft's Business Email System are not receiving my emails. SES also tells me that I have no bounces too.
The user's email has {name}.onmicrosoft.com on it.
How can I go about resolving this?
EDIT: Found out that the key phrase "password" is a root cause for the email being blocked and not showing up at all. Not sure how to combat this as I am sending a password reset email.
Thanks
I am trying to send email message to a specific email address via the aws pinpoint. My from email address is verified. However, whenever I try to send the email it gives me an error "Failed to submit email message to ". I don't understand where am I going wrong with this.
#Krishna gave the right clue, however to be precise, all of the following must be true:
Your From email address is verified in Amazon Pinpoint/SES.
Either your To email address(es) is verified, OR you have requested Sending Limit Increase specifically for Amazon Pinpoint, not just SES.
In my case it was problem no. 2, I have increased my sending limit for SES but not Pinpoint yet. Amazon treats them somewhat differently, however the error message it gave me was totally undecipherable:
Message not sent: We weren't able to send your email message to someemail#gmail.com. Request Id 982 : Failed to send message.
Specifically, check the Pinpoint project's right sidebar here:
By default Pinpoint provides an sandbox environment.
In order to send emails you need to white-list your from email address as well. ( i.e. got to SES and verify the from email id as well)
You should them be able to send emails via Pinpoint.
The receiver should acknowledge to terms and condition that AWS can send automated emails.
I want to use Amazon's Simple Email Service to send emails.
I verified my domain as well as the email address I want to send from.
For both it says verified.
Now when I use the Send Test Email from the AWS Console to send a test email to myemail#outlook.com, I only get the error message:
Email address is not verified. The following identities failed the
check in region EU-WEST-1: myemail#outlook.com (Request ID:
9fb78de1-2673-11e6-bbbc-5f819fabe4f4)
Now it strikes me because it says myemail#outlook.com was not verified but I tried to send from admin#mydomain.example. The Send Test Email Dialog even forces you to use an email which already is registered.
How can this issue be resolved? Did I miss anything?
When your SES account is in "sandbox" mode, you can:
Only send from verified domains and email addressed, and
Only send to verified domains and email addresses
In order to send to anyone else, you must move your account out of sandbox mode by contacting AWS support and requesting it:
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/console/ses/sandbox
In my case I needed to verify the email again in the region where it failed. You can try to change your region in the top right then you have click again "Verify a New Email Address"
If the email is already verified and you're out of the SES Sandbox, check that you've the correct AWS region for the SMTP server. I was trying to connect to email-smtp.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com when my SMTP credential was for the email-smtp.us-east-1.amazonaws.com server.
#Matt Houser has already answered the questions but I am adding a screenshot from June, 2020 that explains what he said.
Make sure
You add your email to ses and get verified.
You enable the Production mode for your account.
Make sure
-You have submitted your case request to support customer and explain in what purposes confirm it for to 24 maybe they will ask you about some additional information about your application
I had this issue. I verified domain and email, even the DKIM settings was verified.
But still getting this message :
Email address is not verified. The following identities failed the check in region {aws_region}: {email}
I added SourceArn as parameter for sendEmail than get this message :
User `arn:aws:iam::{account_id}:user/{username}' is not authorized to perform `ses:SendEmail' on resource `arn:aws:ses:{aws_region:{account_id}:identity/{email}'
After 2 days I found out the I was using wrong IAM user !
Be aware the Verified Identities are actually case sensitive. I was wondering why I got such error, even though my email was verified and out of SandBox.
Problem
Confusion comes from the fact that your e-mail address shows as "Verified" in AWS SES -> Verified identities and still not working.
In fact, there are two verification:
DKIM one (which makes the field tick green and verified)
E-mail address verification
That means you must use the e-mail address which you have access to (mailbox) in order to click in the verification link.
Without clicking the link in the e-mail, your identity may be verified but you'll still see the error everywhere.
Simple solution using AWS WorkMail
I am using AWS WorkMail but I've created a new Group instead of another WorkMail account, then added my personal account to it, received a verification e-mail and managed to get: "noreply#..." working.
In my case, I wanted to email to the same verify email.
So, I verified my email by DKIM as #Greg Wozniak mentioned. I saw the field tick green and verified:
But I was still seeing:
Email address is not verified. The following identities failed the check in region...
The solution in my case was to add this function in the code:
def verify_email_identity():
ses_client = boto3.client("ses", region_name="us-east-1")
response = ses_client.verify_email_identity(
# Email address that will receive the email
# In my case the same email address
# that was verified on Amazon SES
EmailAddress="receipientemail#gmail.com"
)
print(response)
Taken from this webside
So, I received a new email to verify the recipient email address. After verify the recipient email address by clicking in the link sent by Amazon SES. I was able to send the email with this code:
client = boto3.client('ses',region_name="us-east-1")
# Try to send the email.
try:
#Provide the contents of the email.
response = client.send_email(
Destination={
'ToAddresses': [
receipientemail#gmail.com,
],
},
Message={
'Body': {
'Html': {
'Charset': "UTF-8",
'Data': "Test",
},
},
'Subject': {
'Charset': "UTF-8",
'Data': "Test",
},
},
Source=receipientemail#gmail.com,
)
# Display an error if something goes wrong.
except ClientError as e:
print(e.response['Error']['Message'])
else:
print("Email sent! Message ID:"),
print(response['MessageId'])
I had verified an email address, and then a few days later my domain. When the domain was fully verified (inc DKIM) I was still getting the 'Email address is not verified' error when trying to send emails to email addresses within my domain, that weren't my specific verified address.
I deleted my verified email address, and re-verified it, and it worked immediately. I could then send domain wide emails, whereas before - I could only send to and from the email I had previously verified.
I was having the same issue a couple minutes ago, although this time I'm working with the SDK in PHP.
I had to double check the SesClient instantiation code.
$SesClient = new SesClient([
'profile' => 'default',
'version' => '2010-12-01',
'region' => 'us-west-2',
]);
I discovered that the region in the instantiation code is us-west-2.
I went back to my console and discovered that SES account was sandboxed in us-east-2 (Ohio).
I implemented the change in the instantiation code like so
$SesClient = new SesClient([
'profile' => 'default',
'version' => '2010-12-01',
'region' => 'us-east-2',
]);
It's working now.
I had this issue and none of the above worked for me. My issue related specifically to sending via python using boro3. I eventually figured out that the system I was working on had a different set of aws credentials stored in the windows system than it did on the Linux subsystem on the same windows machine. The solution was to set both sets of aws credentials to match the appropriate aws account. I add this here just in case anyone has the same issue and, like me, couldn't find an answer.
For me the issue was that I was mismatching cases.
The verified email and the email sent have to match exactly.
test#gmail.com vs Test#gmail.com
I'm using opencart 1.5.1.3. For some reason I can't send an email to the same account I am sending from. For example, I can't receive the notification email when an order is placed. The email reaches the customer OK and if I specify additional email address to send the mail to, they receive the email OK, the email configured as the store email addres doesn't receive the email. I'm using the 'mail' option to send email.
The email is hosted at google apps. Please help
some web hosting prevent self-to-self email for safety reason.
maybe it is your hosting provider block this mail.
