SES moved out of sandbox, but still no emails to unverified allowed
I have a Django site that I am using SES for password reset and have set-up in AWS_SES_REGION_ENDPOINT = "email.us-east-1.amazonaws.com" . For trouble-shooting, I added a few emails in the verified identities area. The email works fine when I send TO these emails. If I try to send to anyother non verified email I receive the following error: An error occurred (MessageRejected) when calling the SendRawEmail operation: Email address is not verified. The following identities failed the check in region US-EAST-1: mymailaddress@hotmail.com
I did verify that I am out of Sandbox mode and do not have the warning at the top of the dashboard. Is there something I can do to troubleshoot this?
- I am out of sandbox
- I can send to verified identities
- I cannot send to non-verified identities

This was a rookie mistake. I had 2 regions set-up in Amazon SES. The one that was out of the sandbox (us-east-2) and one still in "sandbox" us-east-1. My Django code was using the wrong one. Changed the settings.py email settings to us-east-2:
EMAIL_BACKEND = 'django_ses.SESBackend'
EMAIL_HOST = 'email-smtp.us-east-2.amazonaws.com'
EMAIL_PORT = 587
EMAIL_USE_TLS = True
AWS_SES_REGION_ENDPOINT = "email.us-east-2.amazonaws.com"
AWS_SES_REGION_NAME = 'us-east-2'
DEFAULT_FROM_EMAIL = 'noreply@mysite.com'

Congratulations! Your DKIM setup for the domain mysite.com is complete. You can now send DKIM-signed emails from any address within this domain through both Amazon SES.
For more information about DKIM, see the Amazon SES Developer Guide at http://docs.aws.amazon.com/ses/latest/DeveloperGuide/dkim.html . Please note that this email only relates to the US East (Ohio) region.
