Step 4: Add your SES to SelfMailKit

If you haven’t done it, it will automatically redirect you to the SelfMailKit onboarding page. All you need to do is copy permissions and paste them into your AWS account. This is a crucial and best practice, as we don’t use AWS credentials to access your account. Only minimal permissions are required. It takes less than 2 minutes.
On the onboarding page, there are step-by-step instructions and a video tutorial.
