How to Integrate Amazon SES with Pabbly Email Marketing for Campaigns?

[dpsingh]

Hi Pabbly Support Team,

I have recently subscribed to the Pabbly Plus plan, and I’m planning to use Pabbly Email Marketing to run my email campaigns. I want to integrate Amazon SES as my SMTP service to ensure high deliverability and cost-efficiency for bulk emailing.

I need help and step-by-step guidance on the following:

1. Amazon SES Account Setup:
   • How do I create an Amazon SES account from scratch?
   • What region should I choose for best performance with Pabbly?
   • How do I verify my sender domain/email?
   • How can I request production access (to remove sandbox restrictions)?
2. Generating SMTP Credentials in Amazon SES:
   • How do I create and access SMTP username/password?
   • Which port and server should I use for SMTP in Pabbly?
3. Connecting Amazon SES with Pabbly Email:
   • Where exactly do I enter SMTP details in Pabbly?
   • Any specific settings to enable authentication, TLS/SSL, etc.?
4. Campaign Setup and Best Practices:
   • How do I create a successful email campaign once SES is connected?
   • What sending limits should I consider (daily and per second)?
   • How can I avoid bounces/spam issues while using SES?
   • Any recommendations for warming up a new SES account?
5. Monitoring & Deliverability:
   • How can I track delivery, open rates, bounces, etc., inside Pabbly?
   • Can I integrate bounce/complaint handling through Amazon SNS?

I want to make sure everything is set up correctly from day one. I’d really appreciate a step-by-step walkthrough or if you can share a detailed video/documentation link to guide me through the entire process.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Best regards,
Dalpat Singh
