Golang AWS SES email bad sender


I am using the AWS SES SDK for Golang and it works as planned, but the only issue I have is that I send my emails from hi@domain.com so when the email is received in the from place I see hi instead of the domain name which I would prefer and I can't seem to find an easy fix for it. Has anyone encountered this? I think there should be an easy way to solve the issue. My code is almost identical to the linked sample in the SDK.


Solution

  • While providing FromEmailAddress in SendEmailInput struct try to use the following format Nice sender name <sender@example.com>, so to have the domain name you could have:

    fromEmailAddress := "Example.com <sender@example.com>"
    sesv2.SendEmailInput {
      FromEmailAddress: &fromEmailAddress, 
    }
