Maillog / Mail Developer (obsolete)
This module logs outgoing emails for debugging purposes, with an option to prevent them from being sent. It allows you to view logged emails directly to test mail functionality without needing a separate mail server.
Maillog provides an easy possibility to log all Mails for debugging purposes. It's possible to prevent the mails to being sent, so there is no need for an extra mail server to test the mail functionality of other modules or the drupal core. Additionally you can immediately display the mail through the devel dpm() facility.
Warning
Recording mails may be in violation of some regional legal regulations. The maintainers of this module deny all responsibility for how individual site owners & maintainers use this module.
Drupal 11 and beyond
This module is obsolete as the Drupal community is moving towards Symfony Mailer as the default mail system; for logging functionality use the Symfony Mailer Log module.
