Setting Up Amazon SES Email Receiving
This section describes what you need to do to configure Amazon SES to receive your mail. For example, you should first consider how you want to receive, filter, and process your mail, because those decisions will affect how you configure Amazon SES. You also need to verify your domain with Amazon SES to prove that you own it, and point your domain to Amazon SES for incoming mail.
