Track email queue ID

[supermathie (Michael Brown)]

For any email we deliver (Admin / Email / Sent) we should log the queue ID. For example:

250 2.0.0 OK 1398407462 tv5si4104952pbc.459 - gsmtp

This would make it possible to track down sent email if there’s a problem.

That would require parsing logic for every SMTP server that Discourse could talk to, and assume that the server is not running a modified version of whatever MTA it uses. The content of the ‘250’ message is not specified by any standard, beyond the ‘2.0.0’ enhanced status code.

No, it’s sufficient (and desirable) to log the entire 250 response, just like an MTA would.

Oh, right, you said ‘log the queue ID’, so I thought you mean ‘extract the queue ID from the response’
