OurBigBook Web email sending with AWS SES

This is the current method used on OurBigBook.com. They currenly offer pay as you go mailing at 1$ / 10,000 emails sent, which feels reasonable.
OURBIGBOOK_SEND_EMAIL=ses \
    OURBIGBOOK_SEND_EMAIL_SES_REGION=us-east-1 \
    OURBIGBOOK_SEND_EMAIL_SES_USERNAME=access-key \
    OURBIGBOOK_SEND_EMAIL_SES_API_KEY=secret-access-key \
    npm run dev
The initial setup is slightly annoying as you have to write to support for them to enable your account, much like other AWS products, but once that is done we managed to get it working fine.
