How to get started using SwiftMailer

I wanna use swiftmailer to send the results of a form to a gmail account.

I'm new to php (and new to ubuntu), and in the stage of being (embarrasingly) lost even when reading the documentation.

Questions:

a) Where do I extract the library? I placed it on my desktop. Shouldn't it go in some apache folder?

b) How would a sample message sent to a gmail inbox would look like?

As long as there are permissions set so your webserver can read the directory, you can put this library where ever you like. So if your webserver serves pages from /var/www/htdocs, maybe you should put this at /var/www/swift. Then when you require the library in your application, you can:

require_once '/var/www/swift/lib/swift_required.php';

Then you can start using the library. For more information, check out the docs for a quick reference at: http://swiftmailer.org/docs/messages.html
