Hey Everyone, i'm on the paid plan of Ory network and i'm having trouble configuring AWS SES as the SMTP server. I've read this part of the guide: https://www.ory.sh/docs/kratos/emails-sms/sending-emails-smtp#aws-ses-smtp but it seems out-of-date because the Ory Network ui doesn't provide a way to input the full URI, it is spread out in separate fields. When i fill it in the obvious way (see below) it will give me the error below. Since it looks like an url escaping problem i suspect that the password from AWS (which can have + and / characters) is not correctly escaped. This is confirmed by the fact that when i change the password to something without those characters it does not fail on this error (instead i just don't receive the emails because the password is obviously incorrect). NOTE: there is no control on AWS SES on what character are in the password

thanks, we’re aware of the problem, that some characters lead to this error. The usual workaround was, to re-generate the password until there are no more special characters in it.

Ah, right. Thank you for the quick response
