Some do not use namespaces and every library we encountered was merely a collection of scalar property bags than objects using encapsulation. Although we used these libs with joy in the past, they do not meet current quality standards. So, we built a new and better library according to modern programming principles. Use this if you want to send e-mails over different transports and protocols using immutable messages and streams. Send message quick and easy --------------------------- [](#send-message-quick-and-easy) ``` $message = (new MessageBodyCollection('Hello World')) ->withAttachment(new FileAttachment('/order1.pdf', new ContentType('application/pdf'))) ->createMessage() ->withHeader(new Subject('Hello World')) ->withHeader(From::fromEmailAddress('from@example.com')) ->withHeader(To::fromSingleRecipient('to@example.com', 'name')) ->withHeader(Cc::fromSingleRecipient('cc@example.com', 'name')); $transport = new SmtpTransport( ClientFactory::fromString('smtp://user:pass@host/')->newClient(), EnvelopeFactory::useExtractedHeader() ); $transport->send($message); ``` Install using composer ---------------------- [](#install-using-composer) ``` $ composer require genkgo/mail ``` Features -------- [](#features) - Use SMTP or mail() to send messages - Use IMAPv4 to read messages from your mailbox (no extension required) - Create replies and forward messages, including quoting of original message - Queue messages when transport fails - Automatically connects and reconnects after interval to SMTP server - Automatically generate alternative text for formatted messages - Optimal encoded headers, so no excessive (Q/B) encoded headers - Optimal encoded multipart messages - Only streams and connections are mutable - Messages and actors are immutable - Value objects protect against invalid states - Streams make sure the library has a low memory burden - Many objects but still easy API - 90%+ test coverage - Uses highest PHPStan detection level - Only uses TLS < 1.2 if not otherwise possible - Discourages SSL - DKIM signed message - Security is highly prioritized - SMTP server for testing purposes - Great RFC compliance - Cast messages to valid string source - Library has no external dependencies (but uses intl extension) - Only PHP 7.1 and up Upcoming features ----------------- [](#upcoming-features) - Encrypted and signed messages Not planned ----------- [](#not-planned) The following features are not planned for development by the owners, but could become part of the library when initiative is taken by the community. - POP Support - Mailbox abstraction layer Documentation ------------- [](#documentation) - [English documentation](https://mail.readthedocs.io/) - [PHP7.1未満お断り！最新PHPメーラーライブラリ Genkgo/Mail を試してみる - Qiita](https://qiita.com/mpyw/items/88161f9a809e063823c6) RFC-compliance -------------- [](#rfc-compliance) This library tends to be as compliant with e-mail RFCs as possible. It should be compliant with the following RFCs. - [RFC 821, Simple Mail Transfer Protocol](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc821) - [RFC 1896, The text/enriched MIME Content-type](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1896) - [RFC 2822, Internet Message Format](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2822) - [RFC 2045, Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) Part One](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2045) - [RFC 2046, Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) Part Two](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2046) - [RFC 2047, Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) Part Three](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2047) - [RFC 2048, Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) Part Four](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2048) - [RFC 2049, Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions (MIME) Part Five](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2049) - [RFC 2392, Content-ID and Message-ID Uniform Resource Locators](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2392) - [RFC 2821, Simple Mail Transfer Protocol](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2821) - [RFC 3501, Internet Message Access Protocol - version 4rev1](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3501) - [RFC 4954, SMTP Service Extension for Authentication](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4954) - [RFC 5321, Simple Mail Transfer Protocol](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5321) - [RFC 6530, Overview and Framework for Internationalized Email](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6530) Credits ------- [](#credits) This library was not able to exist without [Zend/Mail](https://github.com/zendframework/zend-mail)and [PHPMailer](https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer). ### Health Score 22 — LowBetter than 22% of packages Maintenance33 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity7 Limited adoption so far Community8 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity36 Early-stage or recently created project Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 100% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
