I have met with qestions regarding swift mailer on this board several times and it just bugs me that I do not know what you are talkin' about.
Can you please point me out the obvious by comparing it with phpmailer?

Basically it's the same thing as PHPMailer. We prefer Swiftmailer because it's written by one of this forum's mods. Whether one is actually better code than the other though.. I think that comes down to personal preference about what you think makes code good. They're both bloody awesome to be honest, and they're both a hell of a lot better than PHP's built-in mail() functionality.
The PHPMailer team do have a tendency to leave the official site for it out of date for long periods of time mind you. That's a pretty big downside if you're researching it or looking for documentation.

That makes sense. Then you know what? I will start using SwiftMail just because it is written one of OUR memebers. (Hoping to get the same support in case I start a similar project, which is unlikely

)
