    PHPMailer, as the name suggests, is an email-sending tool for PHP. It offers a straightforward and reliable approach to sending email messages from PHP applications. Security remains a top priority for the PHPMailer creators. It is equipped with built-in support for SSL/TLS encryption, ensuring the protection of email messages against interception and tampering. Moreover, it implements safeguards against common email injection attacks, effectively countering header injection and body injection vulnerabilities.

    In any case, I don't recommend using mail() anyway. It's a low level function, a PITA to work with and you need to understand some infrastructure stuff to make it reliable. A simple alternative is https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer.
