I jumped in and updated the Mailer module to the latest version of PHPmailer, and added in SSL support (configurable via admin screen). This works great for Gmail and Google apps.
Anyone interested in testing? PM me.
Changes are minimal - merely dropped in new PHP class and added a modvar with a little logic to configure class instance if SSL is selected - so API should remain unaffected. Modules that accessed the phpmailer class directly (are there any?) may have issues. Testing Configuration works, registration emails works.
Core devs - want the code? or is this something that's being added in the dev branch already?
Thanks,

Bad luck if you access a class without using the correct API of the Mailer module

Missed this when I was looking for mailer updates yesterday.
I submitted ticket 262 on the core project yesterday, which included a patch to update to the latest phpMailer. It has been accepted and integrated. You can view the ticket for more details.
However, all you have to do then is submit a patch based on that version to add SSL support. It sounds like a good idea to include.
