SES configuration not working

mikeyapina

I set up SES and it is not working not even close when I tried to retrieve a email address to change the password this is the result .. I cannot do anything with subscribe it says I email cannot be sent out.

I can show u the .env in a private email since that will show my credentials in the mal.php

MAIL_DRIVER=ses
MAIL_HOST=email-smtp.us-west-2.amazonaws.com
MAIL_PORT=587

this is the error for subscription
Error! Error! Mail can not be sent currently, please try again later..

i fixed the problem for SES send you cannot have a special character in the string for secret and access id once I created one from AWS SES that had no special characters everything is working.
