Description
composer depends swiftmailer/swiftmailer
wildbit/swiftmailer-postmark  3.3.0  requires  swiftmailer/swiftmailer (^6.0.0)  
yiisoft/yii2-swiftmailer      2.1.2  requires  swiftmailer/swiftmailer (~6.0)   

composer depends yiisoft/yii2-swiftmailer
craftcms/cms  3.7.23  requires  yiisoft/yii2-swiftmailer (^2.1.2) 

Looks like Craft / Yii and a number of transactional email plugins like Postmark depend on Swiftmailer, but it's due to be retired by the end of this month (November 2021). Any plans for this?

Additional info
  • Craft version: 3.7.23
  • PHP version: 7.4
  • Plugins & versions: craftcms/postmark

Research direction

Start by reviewing the composer dependency chain shown for swiftmailer/swiftmailer, yiisoft/yii2-swiftmailer, craftcms/cms, and wildbit/swiftmailer-postmark. Determine the affected email integrations and the migration path to symfony/mailer; done means the abandoned Swiftmailer dependency is no longer required without breaking those integrations.
