A Laravel Swift Mailer bundle, installable via the Artisan CLI:

php artisan bundle:install swiftmailer

You must then auto-load the bundle in bundles.php:

return array(
	'swiftmailer' => array('auto'=>true)
);

In your code, you need to get a Swift_Mailer instance:

$mailer = IoC::resolve('mailer');

You will also need a message instance that will allow you to construct your message and later send:

$message = Swift_Message::newInstance('Subject Of Email');

Ultimately the final code to construct a message will look something like this:

// If you do not want to auto-load the bundle, you can use this
Bundle::start('swiftmailer');

// Get the Swift Mailer instance
$mailer = IoC::resolve('mailer');

// Construct the message
$message = Swift_Message::newInstance('Message From Website')
	->setFrom(array('example@example.com'=>'Mr Example'))
	->setTo(array('example@example.com'=>'Mr Example'))
	->addPart('My Plain Text Message','text/plain')
	->setBody('<p>My HTML Message</p>','text/html');

// Send the email
$mailer->send($message);

Or, since your controllers have dynamic access to the IoC container:

$this->mailer->send($message);

Swift Mailer is highly object-oriented by design and lends itself to use in complex web application with a great deal of flexibility.

For full details on usage, see the documentation.

IMPORTANT

Users upgrading from version 3.x or earlier absolutely MUST read the documentation. In short, the API is considerably different so your old code won't "just work".
