Email sending error using amazon ses plugin

Hi there, a novice so apologies if I have missed anything obvious. Installed phplist on Ionos server, trying to use Amazon ses for sending out emails. I get this error:

MailSender http code: 0, result: , curl error: Failed connect to email-smtp.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com:443; Operation now in progress

Please can you point me in the right direction to resolve this. Much appreciated

You need to use the API endpoint, not the SMTP endpoint.

Hi there, thanks for your help with this, really appreciated. I now get the same error except for port 80 and not port 443, would welcome again your advice pointing me in the right direction to sort this

Regards

Sorry, issue resolved now - being silly with mixing up the API and SMTP endpoints.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction Duncan - appreciated.
