 * During the setup of the plugin, I am using a domain already verified in AWS and
   I get an error message when I click the button to ‘Complete Verification’.
 * **Error Verifying Sender**
 * There was an error verifying the provided sender. Please make sure that your 
   access keys are correct and try again
 * I tried this on a new site without a domain verified prior getting started, and
   I was able to complete the setup of WP Offload SES and it works fine.

 * Hi there!
 * WP Offload SES Support Team here, Thanks for reaching out with your query we 
   would be happy to assist
 * Based on that error, it seems that the Access Keys are invalid. Could you please
   make sure that your AWS access keys are valid and that the IAM user has the “
   [AmazonSESFullAccess](https://deliciousbrains.com/wp-offload-ses/doc/quick-start-guide/#iam-user)”
   permissions.
 * Please let us know how that goes.

 * I can confirm access keys are valid and the IAM user has “[AmazonSESFullAccess](https://deliciousbrains.com/wp-offload-ses/doc/quick-start-guide/#iam-user)”
   permissions.
 * Prior the setup this site has the domain already verified on AWS and its configured
   to use Amazon WorkMail.

 * Hi [@jpandino](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jpandino/) ,
 * Thanks for the additional information. If you dismiss that message, and then 
   send another email from the site, does that error come back up?
 * Amazon WorkMail is different from Amazon SES. Kindly ensure that you have completed
   your SES account in your AWS dashboard.

 * Another thing you can try is creating a new access key for the IAM user and using
   the new key on your site.
 * You can also follow our guide below for further steps in debugging the issue.

 * Yes, the errors keep happening, I am unable to instantiate the AWS SES client.
   I am unable to proceed after Verify Domain, when the domain is already verified
   on AWS. Its like its unable to authenticate, the access keys are correct, the
   permissions are correct. I have SES enabled on AWS.

 * I tried the same thing in another site on the same server and I got the same 
   results, unable to verify the domain, it not authenticating or trying to using
   the access key.

 * I tried with a different AWS account which I am able to use without problems 
   in another site with WP Offload SES and still didn’t work.

 * Hi [@jpandino](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jpandino/),
 * Thank you for the update. We’re sorry to hear the issue persists.
 * Can you please try editing your _wp-config.php_ file on the server to replace
   this line:
 * `define( 'WP_DEBUG', false );`
 * With these lines –
 * `define('WP_DEBUG', true);`
   `define('WP_DEBUG_LOG', true);``define('WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY',
   false);`
 * This will cause all runtime errors, warnings, and notices to be written to _/
   wp-content/debug.log_, which will hopefully yield some better information about
   what’s going on.
 * Can you please try the process again and then send on the _debug.log_ file if
   created?
 * More details about that at [https://wordpress.org/support/article/editing-wp-config-php/#wp_debug](https://wordpress.org/support/article/editing-wp-config-php/#wp_debug)
 * Once we have finished troubleshooting, you should revert that config change and
   delete the _debug.log_ file.

 * This was fixed in v1.6.5.
 * After upgrading, please dismiss the unverified email address error notice. If
   it comes back later, that will hopefully not be a false positive and should be
   looked into.
