If the mail that you send is acceptable to ISPs, this limit will quickly increase. Over time, your sending limits will steadily increase so that you can send larger quantities of email at faster rates. These sending limits help you gradually ramp up your sending activity, and they decrease the likelihood that ISPs will block your emails because of sudden, unexpected spikes in volume or rate.

Instead, Amazon SES sends a warning email message back to you. You can then take action to correct this situation. If the email message is free of spam and other questionable content, Amazon SES sends it out for delivery, and it should soon arrive in the recipient's inbox.
