The package provides abstraction for sending emails via mailer and message interfaces. Actual mail sending is provided by separate interchangeable packages.

The following mailers are available out of the box:

- `FileMailer` - writes message to files instead of actually sending email.
- `StubMailer` - keeps messages in memory and doesn't send them.
- `NullMailer` - does nothing.

Yii Mailer extensions:

- [Yii Symfony Mailer](https://github.com/yiisoft/mailer-symfony) - [symfony/mailer](https://github.com/symfony/mailer)adapter.
