How to set up Mailcow in AWS SES

By using AWS SES with Mailcow, you will have a stable and scalable email infrastructure for our organization.

Let’s look at some of the benefits:

  • AWS SES offers high deliverability rates. This ensures that emails reach their destination and are not marked as spam.
  • It lets us easily scale our email-sending capabilities to meet the demands of our business. This is useful if we have a growing number of email users.
  • Furthermore, AWS SES offers a pay-as-you-go pricing model. This helps save on email delivery costs.
  • Additionally, AWS SES offers bounce and complaint tracking.
  • Integrating with AWS SES helps boost email security by leveraging AWS’s security features.

How to integrate Mailcow with AWS SES

  1. To begin with, we have to set up an AWS account and the Simple Email Service for our domain.
  2. Then, verify our domain and get the Access Key ID and Secret Access Key.
  3. Now, log in to the Mailcow instance or server via SSH or the control panel.
  4. Next, we have to install the libraries or tools to work with AWS SES.
  5. Then, it is time to configure the settings in Mailcow to mention that we want to use AWS SES. This involves editing the postfix or email service settings, as well as the configuration files.
  6. Now, enter the SES Access Key ID and Secret Access Key in the mailcow configuration.
  7. At this point, we have to set up routing rules within mailcow. This will direct incoming and outgoing email traffic through AWS SES.
  8. Then, send and receive test emails to make sure everything is up and running.
  9. Our experts recommend monitoring email traffic and SES usage to stay ahead of any potential issues.
