Okay friends in this video let's go and have an overview about mail with mailing application and then connect mail was Amazon sts so we can have our full email marketing system. Let's go to my PC okay friends here again and the front end of mail ways to log into the customers panel just click on log in here and then enter the email and my password and log and what you have to know also is that mail always has a back end for the administration purposes so just say back end like this. And now you can log into the back end of mailers. He is the same email and password. So you can see here we are this my administration panel. So what you have to know is that mail was has two sides, the back end side or the administration panel, and we have the customers panel.
Why is this because male is capable of holding multiple customers So you can build your own mailing business. So you can have your administration panel with multiple customers who pay you monthly for using mail with application. Anyway, now, we are not concerned about this topic. Now, we are concerned about using it for our personnel business for our personal email marketing system. So the back end and the customers panel will be for us only. Anyway, now let's go to mail once again, and see an overview about the main and the core functions of mail with.
So I will go back to the customers panel where your main work will be in. As you can see, in the menu, we have lists, we have campaigns, we have templates, API keys, and so on. So I think as an email marketer, you know that you need to add your email list as you can create campaigns. But there's something missing here we need to add our SMTP servers, we add our mailing server and in our case, it's Amazon CS. We We don't have a section here for adding SMTP servers. So whereas it simply by default mail was doesn't allow customers to add their own SMTP servers.
So you need to enable this in the administration panel. Let's go back to that back end. And then we will go down to settings. We have something called customers here, click on it. And here you can enable anything you want for customers, I will go to servers, and then I will allow them to add servers here. I will need here only Amazon Etsy.
So let's go to Amazon ECS Web API and say allow three years and simply click save changes. And simply in the maximum delivery servers here just change this number to minus one which means that we can add unlimited number of servers as I told you are using it for our personal use. If you are going to build your own business for other customers. You can customize this up to your scenario. Now we are going to set up for our business. So I will set minus one and save changes so we can add unlimited servers, and then go to the customers pile again, refresh.
And you'll see now we have the server section here. We have delivery servers, click on it. And then let's create a new server. As you can see, we can also add Amazon SNS Web API if you are willing to add other SMTP servers, you can simply here, check and allow whatever you want from this list we have made gone we have post mark, we have spark post, we have smtp. We have a lot of servers here. Now with Amazon SDS only.
So simply click on this and now it will allow you to add your Amazon ECS service. What we need mainly is the host name, the access key and the secret access key from where we get this simply Attach a link with this lecture will take you directly to a place where you can create these keys. Now I will open the link just opera and we will be back in the identity and access management. Go to access keys here. And let's create a new access key say create a new access key show access key and here we are. I will copy this paste in my new server access key ID.
Again get the secret key paste here. Let's name it as an example amazon.cs and we need also the hostname if you remember we got the we can get the host name from the SMTP settings here. Here we have is a server name, copy it and then paste it here. We need to enter the from name from email I will say actually gate for me. I was at from email as admin at hdk dot net, whatever you want, and you can set that reply to email, you must ensure that this is a real email that you can send emails to if someone replies to you. I will talk about this later in the course.
Now just paste these details as I showed you and click Save Changes. Very nice. Now the way to validate this server to validate this server, you need to send an email using it and then click inside that email to validate this server. Now if you remember this server, or this CMS system as well and sandbox mode, so you can only send to verify email addresses I will send to my email now, since it's verified by Amazon, enter this email and validate server and oops, it says admin educate dotnet is invalid. It's okay for me to use a valid email. So I will copy it Be this one here and go down, set and save changes.
Let's try again now validate server. And awesome it says check your mailbox to confirm the server. I will go to my gmail account now. And here in the inbox, it may be in the promotional section, and then go here we have please read the server and click on this link. And awesome. The server is validated.
