Swift_Mailer seems to be lot robust than PHP MailUser. "PHPMailer has
everything packed into a few classes, whereas Swift_Mailer actually has a
separation of concerns, with classes for attachments, transport types, etc. A
result of this is that PHPMailer has two different functions for embedding
multimedia: addEmbeddedImage() for files and addStringEmbeddedImage() for
strings. Another example is that PHPMailer supports only two bodies for
multipart messages, whereas Swift_Mailer will add in as many bodies as you tell
it to since a body is wrapped in its own object. In addition, PHPMailer only
really supports SMTP, whereas Swift_Mailer has an extensible transport
architecture, and multiple transport providers. (And there's also plugins, and
monolog integration, etc.)
