That's intended although the documentation isn't very clear: https://github.com/laravel/framework/blob/master/src/Illuminate/Mail/Mailer.php#L313
If you want to log the email that is sent listen for the mailer.sending
event and log the contents.
If the driver option of your app/config/mail.php configuration file is set to log, all e-mails will be written to your log files, and will not actually be sent to any of the recipients. This is primarily useful for quick, local debugging and content verification.
