Using Text Mail Logs
These logs contain details of email receiving, email delivery, and bounces. These logs are a useful source of information to understand delivery of specific messages and to analyze system performance.
These logs do not require any special configuration. However, you must configure the system properly to view attachment names, and attachment names may not always be logged. For specifics, see Tracking Service Overview.
