No need to do anything. The warning is normal and as swiftmailer works perfectly, you can just leave it in.
When laravel 9 comes out it will be replaced as you can see here https://github.com/laravel/framework/pull/38481

Package swiftmailer/swiftmailer is abandoned, you should avoid using it. Use symfony/mailer instead.
If I'm starting a new project now, should I start by removing swiftmailer/swiftmailer and install symfony/mailer before proceeding? Is it something easy to do?
I am also installing Jetstream so it might be related to each other and I'm afraid it might break everything.
What should I do?
Also, in next Laravel update will this be fixed?
Thanks

@Sinnbeck thank you. I've never worked with Laravel. What happens in case my project gets more complicated and I need to update to Laravel 9 from 8? Is it something that can be done easily without breaking anything?

@jlrdw thanks. Also I saw that Laravel 9 is coming in January 25, so very soon, is that correct? or there could be delays

@Flipity even when 8 came out there were a few minor adjustments. When 9 comes out, I wouldn't install day one. Give it a couples of weeks and very early bugs if any are quickly worked out.
I will do a fresh install myself to bug hunt and report any.

@Flipity upgrading is easy. I just upgraded a project from 5.7 to 8 in a couple of hours. Just follow the guide when it's released
