Amazon Simple Email Service (SES) is an email platform that provides an easy, cost-effective way for you to send and receive email using your own email addresses and domains.
When you use Amazon SES to receive mail, you can develop software solutions such as email autoresponders, email unsubscribe systems, and applications that generate customer support tickets from incoming emails.
Amazon SES is not intended to be used as an email server. It has no POP3 or IMAP capabilities for your email clients to connect and download the emails. When you receive emails using SES, you have to implement custom rules that describe how the service should process the incoming emails (store them in an S3 bucket, call an AWS Lambda function, and so on). You can read more in the Developer Guide.
Instead, you could consider Amazon WorkMail - a secure, managed business email and calendar service with support for existing desktop and mobile email client applications. Amazon WorkMail uses Amazon SES under the hood to send all outgoing email.
