Sending e-mail through Amazon SES with PowerShell

Sending e-mail through Amazon SES is really easy. Unfortunately documentation for doing it in PowerShell is pretty scarce at the time of this writing. This hack should hopefully give you an idea of what to beyond "figure out how to translate .NET code into PowerShell in your head).

Note that for this to work you'll need to install the AWS SDK for .NET. You can get it at:

http://aws.amazon.com/sdkfornet/

You'll also need to sign up for AWS and request access to SES. Amazon has good documentation for that and instructions for it are beyond the scope of this hack.

Adobe's FTP Server

Posted in

Adobe makes some very powerful software, but unfortunately their websites tend to be slow loading and difficult to navigate.

To get around this, there are many files you can download directly from their public FTP server. Downloading Adobe Reader is the most common reason why I visit the FTP server.
