Swiftmailer 4.0.6 has just been released. This is a maintainance release and contains two bug fixes:
fixed Swift_Transport_TransportException for SMTP connection not thrown (#109)
fixed Message-IDs are not updated properly (#118)
You can install this new version as usual:
Swift Mailer has been an Open-Source project for many years now, and it never had a blog. That’s fixed now!
I will use this blog to give information about the future of Swift Mailer, and all new versions of Swift Mailer will be announced here too. So, if you are a regular user of Swift Mailer, consider subscribing to the RSS feed (http://feeds.feedburner.com/SwiftMailer).
One the first announcement I want to make is the immediate availability of the Swift Mailer PEAR channel. It allows you to install Swift Mailer globally on a machine with the PEAR command line.
First, you need to register the Swift Mailer PEAR channel:
$ pear channel-discover pear.swiftmailer.org
Then, install Swift Mailer with the following command:
$ pear install swift/Swift
You can find more information about the PEAR channel at http://pear.swiftmailer.org/
Enjoy!
As of today, SwiftMailer has a new project manager, Fabien Potencier. This takeover have been discussed between Chris Corbyn, the current lead of the project, and the main developers behind SwiftMailer. Everything is now in place to keep the project moving forward.
