We recommend using AWS Simple Email Service (SES) to create an SMTP Relay of your own. You can use a domain (nuvens.cloud) or a subdomain (mail.nuvens.cloud), aligned with your strategy. You can then test the connection by clicking Validate Configuration button highlighted above.

To configure SES, follow the steps outlined on the [SES Configurations](https://install.nuvens.cloud/overview/appendices/ses-configuration) page in the installation manual.
