AWS Time difference fix

aws time difference fix
It's due to difference in time on your server and Amazon SES.
1. Check your linux server time by
> date
2. Check Amazon SES time by
> wget https://email.us-east-1.amazonaws.com --no-check-certificate --server-response
if this time difference is more than 300 seconds, then you get this error on sending email from Amazon SES, to solve this use ntpdate on your linux server
> sudo /usr/sbin/ntpdate 0.north-america.pool.ntp.org 1.north-america.pool.ntp.org 2.north-america.pool.ntp.org 3.north-america.pool.ntp.org
Again check the time difference by using above 2 commands.
If time difference is < 300 seconds .
It's done
