Swift Mailer is a component based library for sending e-mails from PHP applications.
Swift Mailer will stop being maintained at the end of November 2021.
Please, move to Symfony Mailer <https://symfony.com/doc/current/mailer.html>_ at your earliest convenience.
Symfony Mailer <https://symfony.com/doc/current/mailer.html>_ is the next evolution of Swift Mailer.
It provides the same features with support for modern PHP code and support for third-party providers.
Swift Mailer supports PHP 7.0 to PHP 8.1 included (proc_* functions must be
available).
Swift Mailer does not work when used with function overloading as implemented
by mbstring when mbstring.func_overload is set to 2.
The recommended way to install Swiftmailer is via Composer:
.. code-block:: bash
$ composer require "swiftmailer/swiftmailer:^6.0"
Here is the simplest way to send emails with Swift Mailer::
require_once '/path/to/vendor/autoload.php';
// Create the Transport
$transport = (new Swift_SmtpTransport('smtp.example.org', 25))
->setUsername('your username')
->setPassword('your password')
;
// Create the Mailer using your created Transport
$mailer = new Swift_Mailer($transport);
// Create a message
$message = (new Swift_Message('Wonderful Subject'))
->setFrom(['[email protected]' => 'John Doe'])
->setTo(['[email protected]', '[email protected]' => 'A name'])
->setBody('Here is the message itself')
;
// Send the message
$result = $mailer->send($message);
You can also use Sendmail as a transport::
// Sendmail
$transport = new Swift_SendmailTransport('/usr/sbin/sendmail -bs');
