so to verify, when i am in the amazon SES tab, and choose “send via” web api, I am not given an option to select tls or ssl. if I click the drop down and choose SMTP api I then see an option to choose connection.

When I choose web api (curently default), it only shows Amazon AWS Access Key and Amazon AWS Secret Key, but when I do a send test email built into the delivery tab, when I receive the test email, in that email, it says “smtp_port 25”.

Question – Is that smtp_port not related to SES and just related to the generic mailster settings that the SES plugin is not using that?

Question – the test email says amazonses_secure tls. So does that mean it is using port 587 even though the test email says “smtp_port 25”

Ok shortly after posting this I think i answered my own question, the solution is to comment out the rules for redirecting to the plain http cache files and above the super cache rules in my original redirect to https rules I added a “[L]” to the end of it. Below works for me

#------------------------------ TAO SSL Redirect START-------------------------------------#
# TAO - the rule below, will redirect the whole -everything to https format
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L]
#------------------------------ TAO SSL Redirect STOP-------------------------------------#
