Verifying an identity for Amazon SES sending authorization - Amazon Simple Email Service

Verifying an identity for Amazon SES sending authorization

The first step in configuring sending authorization is to prove that you own the email address or domain that the delegate sender will use to send email. The verification procedure is described in Verified identities.

You can confirm that an email address or domain is verified by checking its status in the Verified Identities section of the https://console.aws.amazon.com/ses/ or by using the GetIdentityVerificationAttributes API operation.

Before you or the delegate sender can send email to non-verified email addresses, you have to submit a request to have your account removed from the Amazon SES sandbox. For more information, see Request production access (Moving out of the Amazon SES sandbox).

Important

The AWS account of the delegate sender must be removed from the sandbox before it can be used to send email to non-verified addresses.
