Is there any way to see a full SMTP log for email errors? I'm trying to see specific error messages that the SMTP service I'm using is give me. Some emails from Drupal send ok and some don't so I'm trying to track down the issues.

Thanks.

Have you tried setting the "Debug level" under "Advanced SMTP settings" on the configuration page (admin/config/system/phpmailer)?

Yes, but debug only shows "real-time" SMTP messages to the user who sends the email and doesn't put that info in the watchdog log. For example I'm trying to debug when someone places an ubercart order and it sends emails, if it fails, I'd like to see the SMTP log for the failure.

Ah, so what you really want is for the PHPMailer module to save the SMTP conversation in Drupal's logs. It does not do that, and so this is a feature request.

I committed changes to store the communication output in Drupal's database log, and an administrative option for en/disabling it.

I forgot that I need to add this to the 8.x branch, so I'm re-opening the ticket.
