Port requirement for ses api?

[Edmund]

Hi, due to client's security requirements, I need to install mailwizz into an aws subnet with all incoming internet ports closed, except 22 and a custom port for tunneling/vpn. All open for outgoing. One solution is to limit the incoming to only SES ip, as I'm checking with amazon side on this.

For ses api, what is the required incoming ports to receive bounce and complaints handling data from ses? How about outgoing?

It's 80, they send via HTTP

Wow, thanks for the quick reply twisted1919!

For the benefit of others, you can also only open port 443 without 80 if you have ssl installed.
Tested successfully with bounce and complaint handling.

Would be interesting to hear back if you discover any speed difference between 80/plain and 443/ssl?

Good question. I have yet to do a controlled comparison between the two. Atm, I am not feeling the slow down.
