TYPO3 Core

From the second thread, I quote myself:

So +1 on deprecating t3lib_utility_mail::mail(). Other methods like getSystemFrom, getSystemFromName, getSystemFromAddress are still interesting and can be kept in this utility class.

So let's deprecate it now (with 6.0) in this is the issue to do it.

Other thoughts for the future (could / should be a separate issue):

Another idea would be to add a very simple "simpleMail()" method there which can be used to simply send "simple mails out" (like notifications):

• ASCII-text body
• Subject
• Array of destination addresses
• From is chosen by the system

So that extensions wanting to just "say something via email" can do it with one simple line of code. Any further requirements (HTML-body, etc) the extension developer should create a t3lib_mail object.
