I’ve read a lot of articles and watched a few videos but still can’t figure this out.  
  
My amazon SES account is not sending mautic campaign emails for some reason.  
  
When I test my opt-in form (single opt-in), I see that the email subscribers are getting added to my mautic **Contacts** list. But I’m not getting the welcome email that I’ve setup in my campaign. I’ve configured **Email Settings** to use Amazon SES. When I click on **Test Connection** and **Send Test Email** , it works fine. I’ve also setup **Monitored Inbox Settings**. In SES dashboard, I’ve verified my domain and email address. Also, in SES, I’ve updated settings under **Domains \>\> Notifications** , for Bounce Notifications SNS Topic and Complaint Notifications SNS Topic. I’ve also submitted a case to amazon to increase my SES sending limits and the **case has been approved** (with my new sending quota of 50,000 messages per day).  
  
I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong.

In the Configurations -\> Email screen, have you sent the Email sending method to “Send Immediately” or “Queue Sending”?

It’s “Send Immediately”. That was the default option so I didn’t change it. Should I use Queue?

Doing that for me too. Seemed like it came after the recent upgrade. I can send mail to unconfirmed users through the SES panel. And I can send mail to confirmed users through Mautic, and can send mail when to anyone when I use PHPMail. No errors show in the logs. SES is in production not sandbox.
