 I could not disagree more with putting big, bulky and slow PHPmailer in
 the core when 99% of installs will not need it's functionality.

 The email functions are in `pluggable.php` for a reason, any replacement
 should be a plugin.

 If you insist on including it, it should at least be in bb-plugins with
 the bozo and akismet plugins so I can disable it.

 What if people want to use Swift Mailer instead?

 Please roll back the old mailer in pluggable so it keeps the core size
 small and light.
