What is the best way to send emails from PHP script? [2]

Question

I hope this question wont be too specific. But I really need to ask. We all know that we cannot fully prevent our emails to go to spam box right? But I guess we can decrease the #of emails that goes there.

Till now, I use PHP's built-in function mail() but I guess there are other methods right? What are they and what is your best practice for this problem?

Taken from: What is the best practice to send emails from PHP script? That's over a year old, hence the new question.

PHPMailer is good, but as you said, old. I don't know about its mantainance but Swiftmailer is actively mantained as well.... – João Dias Feb 01 '13 at 10:15

Yep I've used PHPMailer for a while but then I switched to Swift because it's actively maintained – ExoticSeagull Feb 01 '13 at 10:19
