- Tags and metadata for tracking and organizing your emails.
- Adding email assertions to your functional tests.

A good course with a subject that can become quite difficult in terms of compatibility.
But Foundation in 2025 😱

Hey @Ruslan
Nice try =) You know writing some clients is a pretty complex task, and it will not fit in any course. I bet there are libraries and that is not required to do by yourself. However, we register your idea in the backlog =)
Cheers!

I mean not "full" client, may be console command for some tasks like:
- Connect by IMAP
- Check IMAP folder
- Find email by part of header , get sender, connect to specific folder (spam, inbox, ..)
- Delete email or something else.
It's helpful task for mailing - FBL (Feed Back Loops) control email.

Hey @David-B,
I don't think it will include this. symfony/mailer is for transactional emails only which don't require an unsubscribe link.

It would be great if you could include how to create dynamic transports aside from the one configured in the configuration. I think this helps with developers who are creating SaaS applications that need to set the transports for the mail service dynamically.
Thank you.
I waiting for something like this course.
