Well, that is the name of the buffer created by smtpmail-via-smtp, which is

called by smtpmail-send-it and by smtpmail-send-queued-mail (as long as the
message has a non-empty list of recipients):

          ;; get or create the trace buffer
          (setq process-buffer
                (get-buffer-create (format "*trace of SMTP session to %s*" 
host)))


Try setting mail-interactive to t, then send a message, then check the

" smtpmail errors" buffer (note the leading space, which you'll have to
quote with `C-q' in response to `C-x b's prompt.)
