I have set up the same thing for myself and have been using it for several years now, so i’ll join in.
Aws ses has this offer where for a few thousand emails per month, email sending is free.
The steps are this:
1- Signup for aws ses, once you do that they’ll put you in a sandbox environment
2- After that they’ll ask you a few questions on why you need it, just tell them its because you’re a growing startup who expects to send thousands of emails per month, (make sure to say this, they don’t crosscheck later, if you dont say something along the lines of this, they usually reject your application to avoid having to serve small customers who might not scale their business later. )
3- After you’re approved, they provide you with a mail relay api key, just take that api key and attach it to your postfix or other smtpd installation
I use docker-mailserver[0] which packages everything I need for my mailserver into a small container and was good to go, it consumes minimal resources too.
For me, i just had to add the ses relay api key to the config file of my docker-mailserver install and it was all setup.
However you can do the same with any provider that gives you an option to act as your email relay, I remember both aws ses and sendgrid provide this service, but I’m sure there are more niche businesses providing this too.

I have the same setup as you, relaying outbound mails through SES. I told exactly how I was going to use it and was accepted promptly. Maybe I just got lucky.
As others have mentioned, setting up SES is straightforward (as much as anything AWS) and for the rest of my setup I just use mailu.io containers. The config for setting up the relay is here: https://mailu.io/1.8/configuration.html?highlight=relay#mail...
Well, I do believe two FDA officials resigned in protest saying there was no scientific evidence for the efficacy of a third dose, and that does sound like legitimate informed scientific dissent.
I think the claim that this 'third dose' was pushed through by pharmaceutical corporations and compliant government officials can't be so glibly dismissed, given such issues.
Of course, future data might support or undermine this view, but it's hardly 'anti-vax hysteria'. Our pharmaceutical system has a long history of this kind of thing, due to their mindless focus on profit margins with much less regard for the safety or efficacy of their products. Look up the Vioxx debacle, for example.
As a matter of fact, I can consider that opposite extreme https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uG3uea-Hvy4
