How to set up AWS SES?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 285

My company has been using sherweb server profiles for the CRM email activities. I would like to switch to AWS SES. I got a custom web app to work with the registered email address and credentials, so I know that the AWS side works. How do I handle the CRM side of this switch? I'm assuming that I have to create a new Email Server Profile, but what settings do I choose?

Server Type: "Other (POP3/SMTP)" probably.

Owner: my admin account.

Incoming Server Location: not sure 

Outgoing Server Location: the endpoint for my region? (email-smtp.us-east-1.amazonaws.com)

Authenticate Using: "Credentials Specified in Email Server Profile"? Then put in the credentials that SES generated.

Use same settings for Outgoing: Yes

Incoming port: not sure

Outgoing port: 587

Authentication protocol: "auto detect" for both

process email from: not sure what this is about.

At the end I get an error saying: "Invalid Incoming Connection Type. You can connect to a POP3 email server only by using credentials that are specified in the user or queue mailbox."

    That video only addresses the AWS SES side of things. I'm specifically asking how to apply the AWS SES info to a CRM email server profile. Since the profile asks for incoming and outgoing info, when I only care about outgoing, do I need to create a "receipt rule" on AWS SES? or is there a way to bypass filling in and using those settings?
