You can use Amazon Simple Email Service (SES) to receive (and send) e-mails on addresses at a custom domain ([email protected]). This setup can be both cheaper and more powerful than using a third-party solution.
The idea behind this repo was shamelessly stolen from Ashan Fernando' post Forwarding Emails to Your Inbox Using Amazon SES
- You need to verify your domain with Amazon SES
- You have to publish an MX record for email receiving
Take in account that all email addresses for which you'll send messages have to be verified or you need to be out of the SES sandbox.
The deploy consists of 3 simple steps:
- Create
config.yml
file (based onconfig-template.yml
) - Actually deploy it:
$yarn deploy
- Activate the SES Rule Set created:
AWS Console > SES > Rule Sets
