## What is this package about
Every web application needs to send email at some point, may it be verification, password resets, updates etc..., Django by default supports SMTP protocol, simply specify smtp credentials and you are ready to go.
But when you use Amazon Services such as SES the preferred way is to access it via its API.  

So Here it is guys. Simply install it, give the SES credentials, and start sending Emails.
More over if your application is hosted in AWS first ~60000 emails are free every month
