Send emails from codemonger.io

[kikuomax]

We are currently relying on AWS Cognito's default email address. But it is not very friendly to ordinary users. We would like to use an email address in the codemonger.io domain.

According to this issue, CDK does not support custom SES configuration for Cognito yet.

I do not want to directly use CfnUserPool because useful features of UserPool are lost.

It looks there is a workaround for this problem. We should be able to tweak the underlying CfnUserPool of a UserPool.

Do not forget to move out of the Amazon SES sandbox. We cannot send emails to the outside until we move out of the sandbox.

Before moving out of the Amazon SES sandbox, we still can send emails to verified addresses.

This issue is no longer relevant as we start over.
