A Systems Engineer has been tasked with configuring outbound mail through Simple Email Service (SES) and requires compliance with current TLS standards.
The mail application should be configured to connect to which of the following endpoints and corresponding ports?
email.us-east-1.amazonaws.com over port 8080
email-pop3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com over port 995
email-smtp.us-east-1.amazonaws.com over port 587
email-imap.us-east-1.amazonaws.com over port 993
Explanations:
email.us-east-1.amazonaws.comis not a valid SES endpoint for SMTP. Port 8080 is typically used for HTTP.
email-pop3.us-east-1.amazonaws.comis not an SES endpoint, and port 995 is for POP3, not SMTP.
email-smtp.us-east-1.amazonaws.comis the correct SES endpoint for SMTP, and port 587 supports TLS.
email-imap.us-east-1.amazonaws.comis not an SES endpoint, and port 993 is for IMAP, not SMTP.
