Setting up Email Address in AWS - Workmail

Hi all, Today I came up with a situation to create email address in AWS and landed in AWS Workmail. Prerequisites: Domain Registrar login details for updating the NS or Dns records. If your registrar is not providing dns management then use the AWS Route53 service for managing the dns records. In this service we need to setup this as below: 1) Create an Organization. The Web application url  will have a tail end like  .awsapps.com/mail  . If your organization is abc then the workmail web application url will be like https://abc.awsapps.com/mail 2) After creating the organization you need to click on it and now create the Domain for email address. 3) Once you create the domain , it should be verified by adding the TXT dns records and the remaining MX, CNAME and SPF records in the dns management (Route53)         > Verify domain ownership (required)         > Finalize mail setup (required)         > Increase security (recommended) It will take 5 to 1
