All PHPMailer can do is tell if the mail was passed off to the MTA
properly or not. If it is, PHPMailer returns true.
What happens after that is out of PHPMailer's control. There is no
guarantee it will be delivered or not - you need the MTA's logs to see
what's happening after that.
It could be your host has limits on what the MTA will send, for instance.
