AWS Automatic SES configures WordPress run on an EC2 instance to use SES for email delivery.
This plugin is not for generic use of SES. If you want to use SES outside of EC2 or have more control over the settings, then use another <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/ses" rel="ugc">SES</a> email plugin.
<ul>
<li>Region is automatically picked based on the region the EC2 instance is run in.</li>
<li>The EC2 instance’s Role is used and expected to have the necessary permissions for sending raw emails.</li>
<li>Only sender addresses verified for use with SES are used.</li>
</ul>
AWS permissions:
<ul>
<li><code>ses:SendRawEmail</code> (required) – Required for basic email sending functionality.</li>
<li><code>ses:GetIdentityVerificationAttributes</code> – If granted, will be used to warn if the default sender is not verified in SES. Required if you want AWS Automatic SES to permit the use of any from address that is verified in SES.</li>
<li><code>ses:ListIdentities</code> (optional) – Optionally used to display a short list of identities verified in SES on the settings page.</li>
</ul>

Use SMTP with authentication to deliver messages from WordPress. Intercepts wp_mail function to allow you to define the server, port, connection security and credentials.
Designed initially as a replacement for the wp_mail function, this plugin uses the core WordPress mail functions and extends only the settings needed to allow connection to third-party mailing systems that require authentication and have sender and recipient restrictions.
Particularly good with Amazon SES where there are tight restrictions for sender lists and in sandbox mode only validated addresses may receive messages.
You can also simply use this to force sender and receivers for any messages from WordPress as well as set the default name in messages originating from your site.
Features:
<ul>
<li>Flexible configuration works with basically any mail service and protocol</li>
<li>Test function will allow you to diagnose specific errors in the email transmission</li>
<li>Able to handle Amazon Sandbox restrictions by overriding the recipient and sending only to an authorized address</li>
<li>Debug mode to capture transmission logs from phpmailer</li>
</ul>

MBC SMTP Flex

Extends wp_mail function to allow you to define the server, port, connection security and credentials.
