Download Zend Framework and put it into a folder accessible by your PHP. Then either do

include '/path/to/folder/containing/Zend/lib/Zend/Mail.php';
include '/path/to/folder/containing/Zend/lib/Zend/Mime.php';

$mailer = new Zend_Mail;

Or - better and more conventient - setup your autoloader and/or include path so PHP can find the classes directly, without you having to include them.

Also see

• the requirements appendix for a detailed list of requirements for Zend Framework.

Register the autoloader and set include path like this:

set_include_path(implode(PATH_SEPARATOR, array(
    realpath('./library'),//the path
    get_include_path(),
)));
require "Zend/Loader/Autoloader.php";
$autoloader = Zend_Loader_Autoloader::getInstance();

I've done it more than once to integrate zend libs in other non-zend projects. Autoloader is not suggested for just inclusion of some libraries as it involves in worse performances (see zend reference about |end_Loader for that). The best way (from both clear code and performances point of view) is very simple:

1) set the include path: (necessary or you'll have fatal inclusion errors):

set_include_path(implode(PATH_SEPARATOR, array(
    '/',
    get_include_path(),
)));

2) do a "require_once" of the library/ies you need, following the structure Zend/ e.g:

require_once "Zend/Mail.php"; 
//you can use now Zend_Mail* classes

note1: you don't have to place a "require_once" of all the needed classes, the main included class already do a require_once of the dependent classes.
