You changed a domain that is important in authentication. That changed the 
identity of the message. That meant you were treated as a semi-new sender by 
the machine learning filters.

You may need to back off and go through a short warmup phase to introduce that 
this SPF + this DKIM + this Header From from SES shared pool is a valid source 
of mail.

ALSO - did you actually have any delivery problems? One thing I’ve noticed (at 
Gmail in particular) is that changes in an authenticated domain often result in 
a lower rate of pre-fetching of images *without* any corresponding change in 
delivery. 

Before you start freaking out about things, check to see if your delivery is 
different. Pixel loads are fickle beasts and it’s worthwhile to understand if 
this is a change in display behavior (ie, it’s a new sender of email, so Google 
isn’t going to prefetch mail until it knows if this is a valid and wanted mail 
stream or if it’s someone faking your sending domain) or if it’s a change in 
delivery behavior (ie, Google dropped all the mail in the spam folder). 

If it’s simply prefetch behavior, there’s nothing you can do. Google gonna 
Google.
