    Does anyone have a good reason they normally fall back on for using the AWS SDK vs the provided SMTP bridge? Rate limits or anything of the sort?

    I find that basically every transnational email service supports SMTP so I normally code to that and call it a day…

    You should get this merged into awslocal

    Edit: uh never mind https://docs.localstack.cloud/user-guide/aws/ses/

    Someone needs to invent a protocol for transferring mail and make it simple.

    Why would I use this instead of the AWS SES Simulator ? [1]

    Somewhat offtopic, but is there a simple email service in the sense of SMTP + IMAP/POP + simple email web interface to use AWS as a end-user email service?
