Hello All I want to query how to configure and integrate Amazon SES with discourse to use it for sending emails from an verified Amazon SES email.
This is pretty easy to setup, in your app.yml:
## TODO: The mailserver this Discourse instance will use
DISCOURSE_SMTP_ADDRESS: email-smtp.us-east-1.amazonaws.com
DISCOURSE_SMTP_PORT: 587
DISCOURSE_SMTP_USER_NAME: CREDIENTIALS
DISCOURSE_SMTP_PASSWORD: CREDIENTIALSPW
DISCOURSE_SMTP_ENABLE_START_TLS: true
Worked straight out of the box for me.
Edit:
To apply these changes you will need to run: ./launcher rebuild app
For anyone else searching, if you do use Amazon SNS to track Amazon SES emails, you can add a custom email header to specify the config set that triggers the SNS topic:
X-SES-CONFIGURATION-SET: ConfigSetName
ConfigSetName
is the name of the configuration set.
That seems to be working for me. I’m planning to have SNS send all the SES logs from different parts of our sites into one place.
For those who are wondering how to set the custom email header, here it is.
-
Go to your
Settings Panel >> Email
or use below link
https://forums.example.com/admin/site_settings/category/email
, you should replace the domain name with your own. -
Search for
email custom headers
, and set your own. That’s it!
