Aws forward mail to another email

AWS provides a service called Amazon Simple Email Service (SES) that allows you to forward emails to another email address. Here are the steps to forward mail to another email address using AWS SES:

Prerequisites:

  1. You need to have an AWS account and an SES account.
  2. You need to verify your email address with SES.
  3. You need to create an SES identity (e.g., an email address or a domain).

Step 1: Create an SES identity

  1. Log in to the AWS Management Console and navigate to the SES dashboard.
  2. Click on "Email addresses" and then click on "Create new identity".
  3. Enter the email address or domain you want to use as the sender's email address.
  4. Follow the verification process to verify your email address or domain.

Step 2: Create a rule to forward emails

  1. Navigate to the SES dashboard and click on "Rules" in the left-hand menu.
  2. Click on "Create rule" and then select "Forward email to another address".
  3. Enter the email address you want to forward emails to.
  4. Choose the condition for which you want to forward emails (e.g., all emails, emails from a specific sender, etc.).
  5. Click "Save rule" to save the rule.

Step 3: Test the forwarding rule

  1. Send an email to the email address you created in Step 1.
  2. Verify that the email is forwarded to the email address you specified in Step 2.

Additional considerations:

Here is an example of how you can use AWS Lambda to forward emails using SES:

exports.handler = async (event) => {
  const { SES } = require('aws-sdk');
  const ses = new SES({ region: 'your-region' });

  const email = event.Records[0].Ses.mail;
  const recipient = '[email protected]';

  await ses.sendEmail({
    Source: email.Source,
    Destination: {
      ToAddresses: [recipient],
    },
    Message: {
      Body: {
        Text: {
          Data: email.Body.Text.Data,
        },
      },
    },
  }).promise();

  return { statusCode: 200 };
};

This Lambda function takes an SES event as input, extracts the email message, and then uses the SES SDK to send the email to the specified recipient.
