In Laravel you can send e-mails to a custom log file.
You can set your environment variables like this:
MAIL_MAILER=logMAIL_LOG_CHANNEL=mail
And also configure your log channel:
'mail' => [ 'driver' => 'single', 'path' => storage_path('logs/mails.log'), 'level' => env('LOG_LEVEL', 'debug'),],
Now you have all your e-mails in /logs/mails.log
It's a good use case to quickly test your mails.
