I'm a little confused here..

Let's say you're sending 100K messages a day.  If these are going through SES 
(like they seem to be), then aren't you going to get charged the prices
listed at http://aws.amazon.com/ses/pricing/ for this traffic?   I.E.  0.10
per thousand messages ($10/day $300/month), $0.12 per GB of attachments, plus 
some amount for data transfer...
