This package allows a Laravel 5 application to send emails through two different mail configurations. This package has been adapted from [illuminate/mail](https://github.com/illuminate/mail) by Taylor Otwell.

Author: [Simone Todaro](https://github.com/SimoTod)

Install
-------

[](#install)

Require this package with composer:

```
composer require cyber-duck/laravel-alternative-mailer:~1.0.2

```

After updating composer, add the ServiceProvider to the providers array in `config/app.php`

```
'providers' => array(
    ...
    'Cyberduck\Mail\MailServiceProvider'
)
```

And add an alias in `config/app.php`:

```
'aliases' => array(
    'Mail2' => 'Cyberduck\Mail\Facades\Mail',
)
```

Copy the package config to your local config with the publish command:

```
php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Cyberduck\Mail\MailServiceProvider"

```

Finally, set up your configuration in `config/mail2.php`

### Usage

[](#usage)

To send an email with the alternative configuration, use the Mail2 facade with the same syntax of the [Mail facade](https://laravel.com/docs/master/mail#sending-mail).

```
\Mail2::send('emails.reminder', ['user' => $user], function ($m) use ($user) {
    $m->from('hello@app.com', 'Your Application');
    $m->to($user->email, $user->name);
    $m->subject('Your Reminder!');
});
```
