AWS SES email not received by recipient

Hi,

I am trying to send an email using a template. When I try to send the email AWS CLI I get a MessageId in response, which I assume means there was no problem with the command, but I don't receive the email in my inbox. I have checked the spam. The sender email is verified and SES is in production mode. Even though I don't get an error the email is not even counted in the Daily email usage counter.

$ aws ses send-templated-email --cli-input-json file://myemail.json

Response:
{
    "MessageId": "0108017eb764e317-3e9252f2-690f-4070-9da0-3a783df5f46d-000000"
}

Thanks
