I have purchased a domain through 123-reg and now I want to set up an email to match with the domain address.

Previously I have been able to do this through a shared hosting account for cheap but now I am running my site on a VPS.

I have set up amazon SES for my smtp server. IS there any way I can do this through that?

On 123-reg it says it will cost around £50 but i would like it to be cheaper

I wouldn't recommend hosting your own email. It can be a lot of work.

Other options would be signing up for email hosting at a place like Rackspace, at only /month, or a dedicated email host at somewhere like FastMail, which starts at /year.

I don't know anything about Amazon SES but you can run your own email server on VPS, typically. Unix/BSD/Linux come with it built-in or easily installed.

So the question would be, are you running Unix/BSD/Linux? Does Amazon not let you use the email ports? Are you willing to learn how to set up, configure and manage an email server?
