By default, SES requires the sender's email to be verified and this is not working with email forwarding. i.e. I receive an email from '[email protected]' and it's forwarded to '[email protected]' this won't work because of the mentioned reason as '[email protected]' is not verified with SES.
I'm trying to update the headers before sending emails so that they are sent from my verified emails on my domain, not users' emails.
Exim advanced editor in Section: TRANSPORTSTART:
ses_forwarded_smtp:
driver = smtp
port = 587
hosts_require_auth = *
hosts_require_tls = *
headers_remove = From:Sender:Return-Path:Return-path:DKIM-Signature:Reply- To:Envelope-From:Received:X-Authenticated-Sender
headers_add = Envelope-From: $local_part@$domain
headers_add = X-Authenticated-Sender: $local_part@$domain
headers_add = Reply-To: $sender_address
headers_add = X-Original-Sender-Address: $local_part@$domain
headers_add = From: $local_part@$domain
headers_add = Sender: $local_part@$domain
headers_add = Return-Path: $local_part@$domain
max_rcpt = 1
return_path = ${srs_encode {SRS_SECRET} {$local_part@$domain} {$domain}}
this didn't work the headers were not changed so I tried to update custom_begin_pre_recipient:
warn
domains = +local_domains
remove_header = From
remove_header = Sender
remove_header = Return-Path
remove_header = Return-path
remove_header = DKIM-Signature
remove_header = Reply-To
remove_header = Envelope-From
remove_header = X-Envelope-From
remove_header = X-Authenticated-Sender
add_header = Envelope-From: $local_part@$domain
add_header = X-Authenticated-Sender: $local_part@$domain
#add_header = Reply-To: $sender_address
add_header = Reply-To: $local_part@$domain
add_header = X-Original-Sender-Address: $local_part@$domain
add_header = From: $local_part@$domain
add_header = Sender: $local_part@$domain
add_header = Return-Path: $local_part@$domain
add_header = Return-path: $local_part@$domain
add_header = X-Envelope-From: $local_part@$domain
remove_header = Received
This worked with most of the headers but not all and SES still detects the sender ad '[email protected]'.
These are the headers I received:
Return-Path: <[email protected]>
Delivered-To: [email protected]
Received: from hostname.mydomain.com
by hostname.mydomain.com with LMTP
id P1OrDxKyg8AZjHKjQ

I get this error:
SMTP error from remote mail server after end of data: 554 Message rejected: Email address is not verified. The following identities failed the check in region EU-WEST-1: [email protected]
Is it possible to remove this email '[email protected]' from the headers and make it as it's sent from '[email protected]'?
