Amazon SES not listed

[Andrew Hall]

Thank you for creating this extension, however on the All Settings page, Amazon SES is not listed.
I’ve put in a trace and found that do_action( 'postsmtp_register_transport', $postman_transport_registry ); in the main plugin is being called before add_action( 'postsmtp_register_transport', array( $this, 'register_transport' ) ); in the extension. Which might explain it?

Hi Andrew,

I am not the developer, however I am assisting with support. When you say that the API doesn’t appear in the All Settings page – do you mean that it is not showing in the dropdown as an option, or something else?

Any screenshots would also be great. 🙂

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you!

Kind Regards,
Tim

Tim,

Thanks for getting back to me. I tried to make a screenshot but the list disappears when you move away from the browser. I’m on the Show All Settings Page. I would expect SES to appear in the pull down against Type? The following are shown in the HTML source:

<option class="input_tx_type_default" value="default" >Default</option><option class="input_tx_type_smtp" value="smtp" selected="selected">SMTP</option><option class="input_tx_type_gmail_api" value="gmail_api" >Gmail API</option><option class="input_tx_type_mandrill_api" value="mandrill_api" >Mandrill API</option><option class="input_tx_type_sendgrid_api" value="sendgrid_api" >SendGrid API</option><option class="input_tx_type_mailgun_api" value="mailgun_api" >Mailgun API</option>

I have the latest version (just updated to 2.0.21) of Post SMTP and version 1.0.0 of the SES extension.

Andrew.

Hi Andrew,

Okay, great! I am guessing you are seeing the same as my screenshot below? I just tested this up in a sandbox environment and get the same. I will ask Yehuda to check this out.

Kind Regards,
Tim

Yes – that’s the problem. And the reason is as indicated in the initial post.

Andrew

Thank you! I’ll pass that on.

Same deal here. Any workaround?

Hi there,

I found that was the case with me too. Doesn’t appear in the dropdown, but was able to enter the details in the settings form.

Under Type, choose SMTP.
Under Outgoing Mail Server Hostname, add your AWS mail server address
Under Security, choose STARTTLS
Under Authentication, choose the plain option and add your AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID to Username and AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY to Password. Worked for me!
