 If you want to use MailDev with [Docker](https://www.docker.com/), you can use the ['djfarrelly/maildev' image on Docker Hub](https://registry.hub.docker.com/u/djfarrelly/maildev/).
 
+Docker environment options:
+
+* `VERBOSE`: Set `--verbose` option. Default to `0`, `1` for activation.
+
 For convenient use with Grunt, try [grunt-maildev](https://github.com/xavierpriour/grunt-maildev).
