I am currently trying to set up extra SMTP servers for additional identities in my e-mail account. I would like to use the Amazon service for this.
However, as soon as I try to send an email with the data provided by AWS, I get an error message:
"Sending of the message failed. The Outgoing server (SMTP) <ses-smtp-server-url> does not support the selected authentication method. Please change the 'Authentication method' in 'Account Settings | Outgoing Server (SMTP)'."
Changing the "Authentication method" did not work either. If I enter the same data in gmail as "Send mail as" (the equivalent to the extra identity of Thunderbird), the connection in the GUI of gmail works without any problems and I can send e-mails via it. So it can't be the data or the configuration of the SES.
I am afraid that Thunderbird does not yet support the newer protocols that SES requires. Does anyone here have any ideas?
