2 months ago I agree with zakyg that leveraging the built-in unsubscribe management functionality of SES would be a much simpler solution than the complex architecture described in this repository. Since Pinpoint sits on top of SES, it would be ideal if Pinpoint could expose a way to control the ListManagementOptions that are set in the SendEmail operation. This would allow using the {{amazonSESUnsubscribeUrl}} placeholder that SES can replace with an unsubscribe link, providing a straightforward way to manage email unsubscribes.
Exposing this functionality in Pinpoint would be a valuable enhancement that could significantly simplify the email unsubscribe handling process.
Since Pinpoint sits on top of SES, which has a built in solution for managing unsubscribes as described here https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ses/latest/dg/sending-email-subscription-management.html is it possible to leverage it? The solution in this repository's sample seems very complex in contrast.
If I understand correctly, it would be enough to get a way to control the ListManagementOptions that Pinpoint sets in the SendEmail operation to be able to add a {{amazonSESUnsubscribeUrl}} placeholder that SES would replace with an unsubscribe link.
