We only recommend you use the Amazon SES option if you are familiar with Amazon AWS and comfortable managing security credentials. The below guide shows you the quickest way to get up and running by generating root user access keys. Keep in mind that anyone that gets these keys will have unrestricted access to your entire AWS account. If you need stronger security please defer to the official AWS documentation.
