SES is super strict even clean lists can trigger bans if the volume spikes. Warm up slowly next time. For bulk sending, better look for providers that allow high volume and are more lenient.

20k on a new fresh account is a call for ban
And probably a ban for life
can you please provide a proper warm-up steps like how should a fresh account build up sending volume,i would appreciate any info

Not more than
30 emails first day
Gradually increase the numbers of emails you send per hour over a period of 3 weeks
30 emails first day
Gradually increase the numbers of emails you send per hour over a period of 3 weeks
so at least one month to get to send 50k per day,thank you for sharing that info i was much in need for it
thank you i much appreciate your input,can you recommand any permission-based email platforms
Hey mate
AWS SES bans fast if you blast heavy on day one even with a clean list. Their system flags sudden volume spikes, low engagement, and high complaints automatically.
To avoid bans next time:
- Warm up slowly (start with a few hundred → scale daily).
- Use double‑opt‑in or highly engaged lists only.
- Keep bounce/complaint rates extremely low.
- Rotate domains + proper DKIM/SPF/DMARC.
Hope this helps, bro!

Sending 20k emails at once will get you banned on SES. Services like sendgrid, mailgun or SMTP2GO are safer but start small increase gradually.

Makes sense, just make sure to ramp up slowly. Cheaps good, but a sudden spike will get your account flagged fast.
yes i will give it another try,thank you my friend

No problem my friend. Just ease into it and watch how the numbers react.

Sending 20k emails on day one with SES, even with a clean list, is a surefire way to trigger their spam filters. They're really sensitive to sudden spikes in volume, especially from new accounts. Honestly, trying to find a "trusted seller" for bulk email lists is a red flag in itself. The best approach is building your own organic list through opt-ins. For sending, consider a more controlled approach with smaller batches and gradual increases in volume, maybe even looking into transactional email services if your use case fits.
