Email app does not send emails despite correct SMTP settings. The only error I get is 'Problem with sign-in'.
How to enable, and then disable email error logging so that I can get more specific error msg?

@ajack - Maybe I can help you :)
If you have developer mode enabled, in
/home/nemo/.config/QtProject/Messageserver.conf
enable file log and add a path for the log, like for example:
[FileLog]
Enabled=1
Path=/home/nemo/Documents/messageserver.log
Reboot the device and reproduce the problem, send me the log file to vdvtest100 at gmail dot com. After that turn file log off again by setting "enabled" to 0.Thanks a lot!
does this still work? I have no idea what I am doing wrong
[root@Jolla nemo]# /home/nemo/.config/QtProject/Messageserver.conf
bash: /home/nemo/.config/QtProject/Messageserver.conf: Toegang geweigerd
[root@Jolla nemo]# [FileLog]
bash: [FileLog]: command not found
[root@Jolla nemo]# Enabled=1
[root@Jolla nemo]# Path=/home/nemo/Documents/messageserver.log
[root@Jolla nemo]# [FileLog]
bash: [FileLog]: command not found
[root@Jolla nemo]# Enabled=1[FileLog]
[root@Jolla nemo]# [FileLog] Enabled=1 Path=/home/nemo/Documents/messageserver.log
bash: [FileLog]: command not found
[root@Jolla nemo]#
I cannot get SMTP to work since an update a few months ago. I need some kind of logging since my device only says 'cannot connect'.

open file:
/home/nemo/.config/QtProject/Messageserver.conf
edit it in order to enable file log and add a path for the log, like for example:
[FileLog]
Enabled=1
Path=/home/nemo/Documents/messageserver.log
Then restart the device or just restart messageserver5, in a terminal do:
systemctl --user stop messageserver5
systemctl --user start messageserver5
Reproduce the problem, send me the log file to mail-logs at jolla dot com. After that turn file log off again by setting "enabled" to 0.Thanks a lot!

If you have developer mode enabled you can see something interesting (if not exactly email logs) by usingjournalctlcommand. Just open terminal, andi type the following (before trying to send email):
devel-su
to become root, and
journalctl -af > email.log
Stop command typing CTRL-C, and see the contents of the file with morecommand.
It means that it has started logging to a file 'email.log'. Now, leave the terminal, don't close it, just minimize it, and start doing stuff with email app to reproduce the error, and after that go back to the terminal, press CTRL-D, and you can see what's in the file 'email.log'.
