AWS SES not working.

[Farazdev7]

I am using SendPortal v2, and it took me two full days to install since I am new to VPS. I tried connecting it with my SES by creating configuration sets and linking them to SendPortal, but it isn't using the email address I specified as the sending address. Then, I tried connecting via SMTP. Although it says the email was dispatched, no email is received in the inbox, nor does SES track any email being sent. I'm really disappointed.

You need to setup the sending email address as a verified identity. In AWS console -> SES -> Configuration -> Identities to verify it. Once a sending identity is verified you may need to set that identity to the use configuration set you want.

This isn't a SendPortal issue; SES needs to be properly configured.

First of all , thank you so much for taking time to respond.
I think I have done it right , kindly have a look:

Waiting for your kind response.

You'll need to verify as an identity the actual email address you will be using as the From. Like [email protected]

I originally tried just the domain and it wouldn't work.

Ohh if that the case, I have not still set-up my inboxes
Would you recommend setting up my own MiaB or Cyber Panel? or you would recommend zohooMail/normal gmail account?
I am planning to send around 5k emails per day.

Update: I verified my email address and tried sending from it:

But got this response:

Kindly help.

From the error message, the From is still set to [email protected], not your verified email address of faraz.dev....gmail.com.

You need to follow all the configuration steps. I have AWS SES and all the services work correctly.
aws is somewhat confusing in its configuration
