phpmailer requires an smtp server. This is not available for free by default.

Actually, phpmailer is available but with limited functionality like working with popular CMS for registration emails according to this knowledgebase article by ifastnet: Email on free hosting. | Hosting KnowledgeBase (ifastnet.com)

However you need to use gmail, other providers wont work.

I don't really like using gmail to send emails from business mail through this way because of

I don't like mailed-by: gmail.com tag here

Well, its not too bad

Not too bad, but still if you want a business email then you should care about headers of email which contain signed by and mailed by information.

effort of setting up something like mailjet is simply not really worth it.

It doesn't really take much time. you just have to configure few DNS record and then simply using SMTP details or API to setup mailjet, sendgrid etc.

But zohomail can also be used as an alternative.

For the default php mail function, which phpmailer can use, Ive never seen an email go thru that, and Im sure if, itll go to your spam. Better just setup your smtp with phpmailer, it makes up for way better eresults.

Maybe because it is mentioned in ifastnet docs that phpmailer works by default with most popular CMS just for email verification system and nothing else.

SMTP is always the recommended option, no matter whether you have paid hosting or not.
