Description

Built on the Newsletter ecosystem, the Amazon SES add-on connects campaign sending to the Amazon SES service via AWS API keys, region selection, and sender address verification. After setup, the add-on module lets Newsletter send messages through Amazon’s infrastructure and process bounces and complaints to mark problematic subscribers with the appropriate status in the site database.

Amazon SES Benefits

  • More sending scale
    Helps operations with large volumes of newsletters and recurring campaigns.
  • Cleaner list
    Reduces resends to addresses that are rejected or marked as complaint.
  • Centralized setup
    Keeps credentials, region, and tests within the Newsletter flow.
  • Less manual dependency
    Automates checks and technical records tied to external sending.

Who Is Amazon SES Recommended For?

  • WordPress sites that use the Newsletter for high-volume email campaigns.
  • Administrators who want to send newsletters via Amazon SES instead of the local server.
  • Projects that need to log bounces and complaints to preserve list quality.

How to Download Amazon SES

Amazon SES is available for download on this page. To put it live, upload the file through the WordPress panel in Plugins > Add New > Upload plugin and activate it. Then, configure the AWS credentials in the add-on panel.

Amazon SES makes sense for installations that already centralize capture, lists, and campaigns in the Newsletter, but need to delegate message delivery to an external email service. The extension adds a direct bridge with Amazon’s infrastructure, including sender verification, send testing, and failure notification reading, while keeping operational control within WordPress.
