 As suggested in ticket [http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/25014 25014]
 I am opening a new ticket to where we can review the inclusion of
 PHPMailer libraries in WordPress (possibly from 3.8).

 Things I think we need to consider:
 1/ PHPMailer uses an AutoLoader that needs including now, should we move
 to a sub-folder like other external libraries to aid file management as we
 now have 3 or more files to manage
 2/ Should we keep with the '.' file notation of PHPMailer now or continue
 renaming and editing files using WordPress '-' notation.
 3/ What files from the PHPMailer library should we include? Languages? The
 Extras folder?

 A starter patch is attached.
