Yeah, smtpmail-debug-info is only going to be relevant if you are using
the all-elisp "smtpmail.el" smtp client to send outgoing mail; mail sent
to sendmail/exim/postfix/etc. via their /usr/sbin/sendmail executables
wouldn't cross that bridge.
Perhaps you could customize `message-sendmail-extra-arguments' to a
value that would log more verbosely. something like "-D some-file.txt"
would send error reporting info there in sendmail's sendmail; perhaps
exim has a similar setting.

Good luck,
