AWS SES handle doesn't exist mailbox with Lambda

Question

I try to use AWS SES for handle some app data on get email.

I've verified mydomain.com with AWS SES. I want handle dynamic email to addresses [email protected] [email protected], where 1,2 id from database.

I want handle it with AWS lambda, but I can not do it because I get:

550 5.1.1 Requested action not taken: mailbox unavailable

Is there any way to bypass the creation of mailboxes?

How can I change to email address via SES, for send all emails to one pre existed mailbox?

Answer 1

First of all, you need to make sure you have your email domain verified under Identity Management - Domains in AWS Console.

After that, you have to verify your RuleSet is active. This means under Email Receiving - Rule Sets - View Active Rule Set you have to see your rule using the defined domain.

In your particular case:

1. Verify domain mydoamin.com
2. Check if the Active Rule Set really contains the SES rules for [email protected] and [email protected]
