Hmm, looking over the swift feature set(yeah, I replied before loading 
it..sorry not awake yet) swift looks fairly nice  - I'm in the middle of 
rewriting a number of email functions I'll give swift a try and see how 
it works.  HTMLMimeMailer will also use an SMTP host, and as I recall 
will handle pop3 logon before send functionality either easily or with a 
small hack(so you can keep all your programs on 1 host, but spread the 
email sending to seperate hosts by functionality - email list, 
transaction oriented, and normal correspondence - so idiots who sign up 
to your mailling list and then want off but won't click the unsub link 
won't lock out your transactional emails from AOL when they report you 
as spam).
