Can we send emails from Rails application using Amazon SES SMTP service where sender's email ID is unverified.?
I know that Amazon SES can send emails to unverified addresses. Is there any way to send emails from unverified arbitrary email address.
I want to know that, is there any way to get rid of it because my application is sending emails using user's email addresses as sender's email address.
I got one solution for this problem. We can add arbitrary email address in From header of email along with the verified email address as follows
"[email protected] <[email protected]>"
Because of this the receiver can get some Idea about the sender of the email.
Unfortunately, it's not possible to send emails from any arbitrary email address using Amazon SES without verification.
You can however verify an entire domain, so that emails can be sent on behalf of all senders from the verified domain. If all your senders email addresses originate from a single domain, this solution will work, otherwise you may need to consider using an alternative to SES.
