Very handy description. However, on my AWS account I have never activated/used SES, so when I try to bring up the console where "it's time to create a new Rule Set in the Email Receiving section:" , this section is greyed out for me. Does the guide assume that one already have set up a domain/emailaddress for the SES?
Hm - still struggling with the email-part. Do I understand it correctly that you need to use AWS for MX for your domain to get SES to do what you need here?
Hello, yes it miss the MX declaration! Here is the detailed guide: docs.aws.amazon.com/ses/latest/dg/.... It's not needed to use Route53, but only to declare an MX entry in your DNS:
10 inbound-smtp.regionInboundUrl.amazonaws.com
(replace regionInboundUrl by the AWS region you are using)

Email Receiving
