=amazon-ses A gem for interfacing with Amazon's Simple Email Service

==Features: Currently you can:

• Send a basic raw text email.
• Send email with a .erb template (Text or HTML)

==Prerequisite

1. First, make sure you validate the email that you are going to use in the "from" section of the email.

http://docs.amazonwebservices.com/ses/latest/DeveloperGuide/

==How does it work:

1. Build email:

• Raw email without a .erb template: You can achieve this by NOT specifying a :template in your options:

  options = { :from => 'email@gmail.com', :to => 'email@gmail.com', :subject => 'Testing', :body => 'THis is a test', :aws_access_key => 'your acess key', :aws_secret_key => 'your secret key' }

  e = AmazonEmail.new(options)

• Email that will use a .erb template: You can achieve this by specifying the location of you .erb file in the :template option:

  options_2 = {
  :from => 'from@email.com', :to => 'to@email.com', :subject => 'This is the subject of the email',
  :aws_access_key => "access_key_id", :aws_secret_key => "secret_access_key", :template => File.new("sample_email.erb").read }

  e = AmazonEmail.new(options_2)

• Email multiple people You can achieve this by sending a Array in the :to field of the options

  options_3 = { :from => 'from@email.com', :to => ['to@email.com', 'to_2@email.com', 'to_3@email.com'], :subject => 'This is the subject of the email',
  :aws_access_key => "access_key_id", :aws_secret_key => "secret_access_key", :template => File.new("sample_email.erb").read } e = AmazinEmail.new(options_3)

2. Send it

e.send
