WP Mail SES

Uses Amazon Web Services (AWS) Simple Email Service (SES) to send emails.
Based on the original WP SES project by Sylvain Deaure. Main differences:
- Does not store credentials in the database
- Convention over configuration
- Removed any functionality which can be done via AWS Console
- Open Source and version controlled via GitHub
