Summary

When I try to set up SMTP with AWS SES, it gives a 501 error

Steps to reproduce

Log in, go to System Console, go to SMTP, enter info for SES (username is just a string, not an email address), click on Test Connection

Expected behavior

Test Connection should respond with success

Observed behavior

Connection unsuccessful: Connection unsuccessful: SendMail: Error setting “From Address”, 501 Invalid MAIL FROM address provided

What are your SMTP settings set to?
