Email Changes
Posted: Oct 21, 2009 8:25 PM PDT
It is our intention to make it easy to reliably send email from the EC2 environment. To help make it easier to send reliable email from EC2, we are making a few changes to our email policy.
If you are sending email from EC2, we highly suggest that you register one or more Elastic IP addresses with us by filling out this form so that we can work to keep it white-listed with anti-SPAM agencies like spamhaus.org: http://aws.amazon.com/contact-us/ec2-email-limit-request/
Additionally, new accounts will be limited by default in the amount of email that they can send. New users wishing to send email from EC2 should apply to have this limit removed by filling out that same form. While these changes have been designed to not impact current users and running instances, please let us know if you experience any problems with your email applications. You will be contacted via email if we detect that your account is hitting the outbound email limit.
Please let us know if you have any questions,
The Amazon EC2 Team
