/**
 * MailerInterface is the interface that should be implemented by mailer classes.
 *
 * A mailer should mainly support creating and sending [[MessageInterface|mail messages]]. It should
 * also support composition of the message body through the view rendering mechanism. For example,
 *
 * ~~~
 * Yii::$app->mail->compose('contact/html', ['contactForm' => $form])
 *     ->setFrom('from@domain.com')
 *     ->setTo($form->email)
 *     ->setSubject($form->subject)
 *     ->send();
 * ~~~

	 *   In this case, the text body will be generated by applying `strip_tags()` to the HTML body.
	 * - an array with 'html' and/or 'text' elements. The 'html' element refers to the view name or path alias

	 *   `['html' => 'contact-html', 'text' => 'contact-text']`.
	 * - null, meaning the message instance will be returned without body content.

	 * @param array $params the parameters (name-value pairs) that will be extracted and made available in the view file.
	 * @return MessageInterface message instance.
