Email receiving

Create a receipt rule set with rules and actions (actions can be found in the @aws-cdk/aws-ses-actions package):

import aws_cdk.aws_s3 as s3
import aws_cdk.aws_ses_actions as actions


bucket = s3.Bucket(self, "Bucket")
topic = sns.Topic(self, "Topic")

ses.ReceiptRuleSet(self, "RuleSet",
    rules=[ses.ReceiptRuleOptions(
        recipients=["[e-mail]"],
        actions=[
            actions.AddHeader(
                name="X-Special-Header",
                value="aws"
            ),
            actions.S3(
                bucket=bucket,
                object_key_prefix="emails/",
                topic=topic
            )
        ]
    ), ses.ReceiptRuleOptions(
        recipients=["aws.com"],
        actions=[
            actions.Sns(
                topic=topic
            )
        ]
    )
    ]
)

Alternatively, rules can be added to a rule set:

rule_set = ses.ReceiptRuleSet(self, "RuleSet")

aws_rule = rule_set.add_rule("Aws",
    recipients=["aws.com"]
)

And actions to rules:

import aws_cdk.aws_ses_actions as actions

# aws_rule: ses.ReceiptRule
# topic: sns.Topic

aws_rule.add_action(actions.Sns(
    topic=topic
))

When using addRule, the new rule is added after the last added rule unless after is specified.

Drop spams

A rule to drop spam can be added by setting dropSpam to true:

ses.ReceiptRuleSet(self, "RuleSet",
    drop_spam=True
)

This will add a rule at the top of the rule set with a Lambda action that stops processing messages that have at least one spam indicator. See Lambda Function Examples.

Receipt filter

Create a receipt filter:

ses.ReceiptFilter(self, "Filter",
    ip="1.2.3.4/16"
)

An allow list filter is also available:

ses.AllowListReceiptFilter(self, "AllowList",
    ips=["10.0.0.0/16", "1.2.3.4/16"
    ]
)

This will first create a block all filter and then create allow filters for the listed ip addresses.
