Email component versus PHPMailer with cakePHP

What are the core differences between the email component on cakephp 开发者_如何学Goand the phpmailer vendor for cakephp?

Does phpmailer use the email component?

Is just using the email component sufficient? What does phpmailer add to the picture?

This question is related to (but not exactly the same as):

I've heard that it's the best option for attached files, but i did proved it.

I think you can do bulk sending to.

Hope it helps.

You could compare APIs.
