### Default mail transport upgraded to sendmail {#sendmail}
Silverstripe CMS provides an API over the top of the [SwiftMailer](http://swiftmailer.org/) PHP library which comes with an extensive list of "transports" for sending mail via different services.
Prior to 4.9.0, Silverstripe CMS 4 defaulted to using the built-in PHP `mail()` command via a deprecated class `Swift_MailTransport`. However, using this layer is less secure and is strongly discouraged.
Installations of Silverstripe CMS setup using silverstripe/installer 4.9.0 or greater default to using the more secure class `Swift_SendmailTransport` which uses a `sendmail` binary.
It's highly recommended that existing Silverstripe CMS installation still using `Swift_MailTransport` upgrade to using `Swift_SendmailTransport` or another available transport, such as `Swift_SmtpTransport`. Details on how to use these classes are available in the [email section](https://docs.silverstripe.org/en/4/developer_guides/email/) of the developer docs.
### Other new features
* [Dot notation support in form fields](https://github.com/silverstripe/silverstripe-framework/pull/9192): Save directly into nested has_one relationships (see [docs](/developer_guides/forms/how_tos/handle_nested_data)).
