Comment:

 PHP Mailer is in BackPress.

 It is only loaded when an email is sent, so it doesn't really increase the
 footprint for the vast majority of page loads.

 To replace it with Swift Mailer you can re-define bb_mail() in a plugin.
 That is the only place it is included.

 The version we have added to BackPress is really well tested as it has
 come from WordPress, and we have had lots of issues with the previous
 implementation.

 If/when BackPress is utilised in WordPress, this library would be included
 at that time anyway.
