You need to request that Amazon support take your SES account out of sandbox mode. Until you do that you will only be able to send emails to verified email addresses.
You may send email to only verified emails using AWS SES. To add email id to the verified email list, add email using SES (https://console.aws.amazon.com/ses/home?region=us-east-1#verified-senders-email:) and click to verification email send by AWS. After that you may able to send email using AWS SES.
Also, you need to add IAM role to the lambda to get access of SES.

I am sending a very straightforward email using Send grid in my node js project. But I get returned a 403 Forbidden error. The API Key has full access. The code is also correctly integrated, as I used another API Key from another account and it works perfectly.
Error log:
Any suggestions?
The error exists as the email address in the "from" field in the message(in your nodejs code,, to be sent using sendgrid) is not verified by sendgrid. Only put that email address in the "from" field which is explicitely verified by sendgrid.
To verify your sender email address to be able to send emails, refer to the link below:-
https://sendgrid.com/docs/ui/sending-email/sender-verification
Hope this helps.
(There could be further issues regarding domain name, read the link properly, they have a warning regarding use of gmail.com addresses, you can ignore that)

Here is the solution to further expand on what #Aman answered above.
You have to verify the email address you are sending from.
so meaning the from: address here
const msg = {
to: 'recepient#email.com',
from: 'sender#email.com', //this is the address that needs to be verified by sendgrid
subject: 'Sending from Sendgrid',
text: 'here is the test from node',
html: `<strong> Here is the order #${orderNumber} user: ${user} </strong>`,
}
Here is how to verify it
https://sendgrid.com/docs/ui/sending-email/sender-verification/
See screenshot below:
Check whether from email address is used when you are verifying your send address.
I was having the same problem.
I discovered that the emails from of my application and the sender authentication of the SendGrid API need to be the same.
const sendMailHtml = async (subject, html) => {
try {
const msg = {
to: 'to#email.com',
from: {
email: "sample#hotmail.com"
},
subject: subject,
html: html,
}
await sendgrid.send(msg)
} catch (e) {
return e
}
}
sendgrid API email field
To fix this error you need go to perform SendGrid Sender Authentication for your sender email.
To do this, You need to login to your SendGrid Dashboard and visit Sender Authentication which is under the Settings dropdown.
There are 2 Types of Sender Authentication
Domain Authentication // recommended
Single Sender Verification
1 Domain Authentication
IF you allow SendGrid to authenticate your domain e.g. webapp.com
THEN you will be able to successfully send an email with your SendGrid API KEY if the email from key matches the verified domain from: *#webapp.com
2 Single Sender Authentication
This is another option where you verify a single email e.g. person#email.com.
Which will then allow you to send out emails from: person#email.com via your SendGrid API KEY
In the latest release of sendgrid they have made the compulsion to verify the "Single Sender" i.e you as a single sender. So, to make it work the From field in your Sendgrid Send Email API should match the email you verified as a "single sender"
verify your single sender account where Sender Authentication/Single Sender Verification/ action column (three-dot)(send verify email- edit -delete menu)
[Tulio Faria] solved it by performing 'Single Sender Authentication' on his Sendgrid account.
I also had a similar issue not too long ago. What helped me fix this issue was to go to settings > API keys and then change the settings of the key I'm using to full-access.
I'm trying to use localstack to test a lambda that use SES to send some emails.
But when I try it , I get the next error:
Email address not verified
Is there any way to verified this email in localstack (docker)?
Thanks!
pd: Sorry for my English
Use the AWS CLI to verify the sender email:
aws ses verify-email-identity --email-address sender#example.com --endpoint-url=http://localhost:4566
I am using aws-sdk using Node to send AWS SES emails and I was able to successfully send emails using AWS CLI. However, from my Node script, verification for my email fails for some reason.
Below is the code:
const aws = require('aws-sdk')
const ses = new aws.SES()
const message = {
Destination: {
ToAddresses: ['example#example.com']
},
Message: {
Body: {
Text: {
Charset: 'UTF-8',
Data: 'Test body'
}
},
Subject: {
Charset: 'UTF-8',
Data: 'Test subject'
}
},
Source: 'example#example.com'
}
ses.sendEmail(message, function (err, data) {
if (err) console.log(err);
else console.log(data);
});
Below is the error:
message: 'Email address is not verified. The following identities failed the check in region US-EAST-1: example#example.com',
code: 'MessageRejected',

Please help! Thank you!
Per AWS troubleshooting documentation:
Email address is not verified. The following identities failed the check in region (region): (identity1), (identity2), (identity3) — You are trying to send email from an email address or domain that you have not verified with Amazon SES. This error could apply to the "From", "Source", "Sender", or "Return-Path" address.
If your account is still in the sandbox, you also must verify every recipient email address except for the recipients provided by the Amazon SES mailbox simulator. If Amazon SES is not able to show all of the failed identities, the error message ends with an ellipsis.
Note: Amazon SES has endpoints in multiple AWS regions, and email address verification status is separate for each AWS region. You must complete the verification process for each sender in the AWS region(s) you want to use.
I strongly suspect that your application's configuration does not 100% match the configuration you used to successfully send your test email via the CLI.
Check the following configuration:
The 'Source' address must be an SES verified sender in the us-east-1 region. Check that the source address that you expect to send email from is a verified sender in each region that you intend to send email from.
If SES sandbox mode is enabled, email recipients (the 'ToAddresses' value) must also be SES verified senders in the us-east-1 region. See 'Moving Out of the Amazon SES Sandbox' for instructions on how to remove this restriction.
Make sure all clients you're testing with are being tested in the same region, since configuration needs to be distinct per-region. The error message mentioned the application attempted to hit SES in us-east-1, so explicitly perform your CLI test in the us-east-1 region again by using the --region option. It is possible that the initial CLI test was flawed if the CLI default region was used, and that region happened to not be us-east-1.
If all of the above looks correct, carefully review your node application. Make sure the SES client is configured for the region you expect to use, and that the client is correctly writing the emails that you expect to the SES request.

AWS Documentation - Verifying Email Addresses and Domains in Amazon SES
AWS Documentation - Sending Email Using Amazon SES
Here is my code using node.js with express, ejs and npm package node-ses
The solution is mentioned above, but is easy to miss. It's the third part, after key and secret, the callback to amazon - the url needs to be there and it needs to be customised for your region, in my case eu-west-1, the other two choices are us-east-1 or us-west-2.
The key and the secret was found in IAM - User. Once you have set up a user with Programmatic access and AmazonSESFullAccess permissions. Select your User and then select the "Security credentials" tab. Scoot down and click on Create Access Key.
You will only be given access to your Secret Password once. When you get access, highlight the Secret Password, copy it and paste it somewhere safely along with your Key.
Your from email must be related to the domain registered on the AWS SES page. If you don't host with Route 53, you will need to register and verify the email on the AWS SES page as well.
Here's the router code:
app.post('/email', function(req, res) {
var ses = require('node-ses'),
client = ses.createClient({
key: 'xxx',
secret: 'xxx',
amazon: 'https://email.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com'});
client.sendEmail({
to: 'xxx'
, from: 'xxx'
, cc: ''
, bcc: ''
, subject: 'greetings'
, message: 'your <b>message</b> goes here'
, altText: 'plain text'
}, function (err, data, res) {
if (err) {
console.log('Email send Error: ',JSON.stringify(err, null, 2));
} else {
console.log('Email send Success: ', JSON.stringify(data,null,2));
}
});
});
I am trying to send email to my other email from amazon SES verified email, but the programs gives an error that email address in to field is not verified. I am making a web app which allows user to log in using AWS Cognito so I dont have their email addresses in database. I need to send email to them on an event(I cannot use SNS because I need to send emails to selective persons which I have figured out.) So my questions are:
a)Do we need to verify SES email of the recipient also?
b)If yes, how can we use the cognito identity pool to verify their email addresses for SES.
code:
var aws = require("aws-sdk");
aws.config.update({
region: "us-west-2",
});
var ses = new aws.SES({"accessKeyId": "Mykey", "secretAccessKey":"YY","region":"us-west-2"})
var to = ['xyz#gmail.com']
var from='abc#gmail.com'
ses.sendEmail( {
Source: from,
Destination: { ToAddresses: to },
Message: {
Subject:{
Data:"Sending emails through SES"
},
Body: {
Text: {
Data: 'Stop your messing around',
}
}
}
}
, function(err, data) {
if(err) throw err
console.log('Email sent:');
console.log(data);
}
Error:
MessageRejected: Email address is not verified. The following identities failed the check in region US-WEST-2: xyz#gmail.com
If you're testing this inside your SES sandbox, you need to manually verify the recipient email addresses before it will allow you to send.
This step isn't required after leaving the sandbox, but it's a reasonable default safety setting when testing email-related functionality during development and not wanting bogus emails to go our for real.
Amazon SES Email Sending Errors (relevant portion in bold):

An easier way to test your email sending in AWS without needing to send actual emails would be to use their mailbox simulator:
The Amazon SES mailbox simulator is a set of test email addresses.
Each email address represents a specific scenario. You can send emails
to the mailbox simulator when you want to:
Test your application without having to create test "To" addresses.
Im using Nodemailer module to send smtp emails from my hotmail/outlook account. I have hosted my app at amazon ec2.
My code to send the email:
var smtpTransport = nodemailer.createTransport("SMTP",{
service: 'Hotmail',
auth: {
user: 'xxxxxx#outlook.com',
pass: 'xxxxxx?'
}
});
When i try to send an email, the server responds with an error name "Error", message "Connection closed unexpectedly", stack "Error: Connection closed unexpectedly

odules\simplesmtp\lib\client.js:388:30)

Someone knows how to solve this problem?
Thanks!
The problem is about locations, not about nodemailer.
Hotmail saves your usual locations and access points, and before each login, it cheks the procedence of the request.
In this case, your tring to auth via smpt from an ec2 machine located somewhere around the world.
These location is extrange for hotmail(microsoft) and it blocks the account access.
Is a security barrier.
You should have a mail in the inbox of that accont talking about a blocked access try. And how to add these location as a safe location.
It happend too with other mail providers like gmail...
