GetLastError() - returns error codes. Error codes are defined in stderror.mqh. To print the error description you can use the ErrorDescription() function, defined in stdlib.mqh.

Example:

#include <stderror.mqh>
#include <stdlib.mqh>
void SendMyMessage(string text)
  {
   int check;
   SendMail("Test", text);
   check=GetLastError();
   if(check!=ERR_NO_ERROR) Print("Message not sent. Error: ",ErrorDescription(check));
