send_email(**kwargs)¶Composes an email message and immediately queues it for sending. In order to send email using the SendEmail operation, your message must meet the following requirements:
SendEmail operation several times to send the message to each group.Warning
For every message that you send, the total number of recipients (including each recipient in the To:, CC: and BCC: fields) is counted against the maximum number of emails you can send in a 24-hour period (your sending quota ). For more information about sending quotas in Amazon SES, see Managing Your Amazon SES Sending Limits in the Amazon SES Developer Guide.

[REQUIRED]
The email address that is sending the email. This email address must be either individually verified with Amazon SES, or from a domain that has been verified with Amazon SES. For information about verifying identities, see the Amazon SES Developer Guide.
If you are sending on behalf of another user and have been permitted to do so by a sending authorization policy, then you must also specify the SourceArn parameter. For more information about sending authorization, see the Amazon SES Developer Guide.
Note
Amazon SES does not support the SMTPUTF8 extension, as described in RFC6531. For this reason, the local part of a source email address (the part of the email address that precedes the @ sign) may only contain 7-bit ASCII characters. If the domain part of an address (the part after the @ sign) contains non-ASCII characters, they must be encoded using Punycode, as described in RFC3492. The sender name (also known as the friendly name ) may contain non-ASCII characters. These characters must be encoded using MIME encoded-word syntax, as described in RFC 2047. MIME encoded-word syntax uses the following form: =?charset?encoding?encoded-text?= .
[REQUIRED]
The destination for this email, composed of To:, CC:, and BCC: fields.
The recipients to place on the To: line of the message.
The recipients to place on the CC: line of the message.
The recipients to place on the BCC: line of the message.
[REQUIRED]
The message to be sent.
The subject of the message: A short summary of the content, which will appear in the recipient's inbox.
The textual data of the content.
The character set of the content.
The message body.
The content of the message, in text format. Use this for text-based email clients, or clients on high-latency networks (such as mobile devices).
The textual data of the content.
The character set of the content.
The content of the message, in HTML format. Use this for email clients that can process HTML. You can include clickable links, formatted text, and much more in an HTML message.
The textual data of the content.
The character set of the content.
The reply-to email address(es) for the message. If the recipient replies to the message, each reply-to address will receive the reply.
ReturnPath parameter. The ReturnPath parameter is never overwritten. This email address must be either individually verified with Amazon SES, or from a domain that has been verified with Amazon SES.This parameter is used only for sending authorization. It is the ARN of the identity that is associated with the sending authorization policy that permits you to send for the email address specified in the Source parameter.
For example, if the owner of example.com (which has ARN arn:aws:ses:us-east-1:123456789012:identity/example.com ) attaches a policy to it that authorizes you to send from user@example.com , then you would specify the SourceArn to be arn:aws:ses:us-east-1:123456789012:identity/example.com , and the Source to be user@example.com .
For more information about sending authorization, see the Amazon SES Developer Guide.
This parameter is used only for sending authorization. It is the ARN of the identity that is associated with the sending authorization policy that permits you to use the email address specified in the ReturnPath parameter.
For example, if the owner of example.com (which has ARN arn:aws:ses:us-east-1:123456789012:identity/example.com ) attaches a policy to it that authorizes you to use feedback@example.com , then you would specify the ReturnPathArn to be arn:aws:ses:us-east-1:123456789012:identity/example.com , and the ReturnPath to be feedback@example.com .
For more information about sending authorization, see the Amazon SES Developer Guide.
A list of tags, in the form of name/value pairs, to apply to an email that you send using SendEmail . Tags correspond to characteristics of the email that you define, so that you can publish email sending events.
Contains the name and value of a tag that you can provide to SendEmail or SendRawEmail to apply to an email.
Message tags, which you use with configuration sets, enable you to publish email sending events. For information about using configuration sets, see the Amazon SES Developer Guide.
The name of the tag. The name must:
The value of the tag. The value must:
