I previous had a SMTP server setup in Appwrite to send emails and it worked perfectly. My AWS SES account got reset for some reason so I had to recreate credentials. But now when I try to update the server it returns: "Project is not accessible in this region. Please make sure you are using the correct endpoint." The Project endpoint and the API Key specifically for SES are both properly set to NYC and the Amazon region is Us-east1 (Virginia). Anyone know the fix?

TL;DR
Make sure to use `https://nyc.cloud.appwrite.io/v1` in your backend code instead of `https://cloud.appwrite.io/v1`. Check your environment variables and restart the server after making changes.

Please make sure that in your backend code, from where you're making requests to the endpoint, you're using https://nyc.cloud.appwrite.io/v1 and not https://cloud.appwrite.io/v1. Also, double check your env variables and try restarting the server after changes.
