 Hello,

 I saw in the mail header, that the PHPMailer is included. The version is
 5.2.22 (from 2017). The latest version is 6.0.5 (from 2018). I think that
 is a security problem for me. It is possible to update PHPMailer to the
 latest Version in the next update?
 The description of PHPMailer says, that some security fixes are included
 in the newer versions. 🙂

 Thanks in Advance!
