Symfony Mailer is a PHP component for creating and sending emails via SMTP or third-party transports. It supports multipart messages, attachments, Twig templating, CSS inlining, and message signing/encryption.

Use cases

  • send emails from a php application
  • send transactional emails over smtp
  • render html email templates with twig
  • attach files to emails in php
  • send emails via third-party providers like mailgun or sendgrid
  • sign and encrypt email messages

When to choose

  • you are building a PHP or Symfony application that needs to send email
  • you want a modern, well-maintained alternative to Swiftmailer
  • you need Twig templating, CSS inlining, or multipart email support
  • you need pluggable transports for SMTP or email delivery services

When to avoid

  • your project is not in PHP
  • you only need a full email server or inbox client rather than a sending library
  • you need bulk marketing email campaign management rather than transactional sending
