cfmail issue help
I am sending a text message to client phone numbers using coldfusion cfmail tag. The problem is as a from I am suing support@testSite.com. The problem is on my email server I do not get a record that the message was sent. What I'm trying to do is to marry questions sent with the response. Now I am getting the responses but I do not see the original message. My email server is Zmail (Zimbra)

Any updates?

The email support@test.com is a real email address
Updates? I've clarified that you need to be looking at the mail server log, the one that CF is pointing to (not the one of the email account in the TO address).

No, that's the CF log. The mailsent.log in CF. I was referring to the logs of the server that the mail was sent THROUGH (from CF, out to the destination).
The bottom line is that you want to find some log that shows details of the mail being sent. The CF mailsent.log only shows what you show, and I gather that's not enough. So now, look to the mail server log (the server that CF points to, in the CF admin "mail" page), to see if you can configure THAT mail server to log what you want.

Look first at CF's mail.log. That will track if there are errors, in trying to send an email. (Note that the mail server that CF will send to is controlled either by the SERVER attribute on CFMAIL, or if none it defaults to using whatever mail server is set in the CF Admin's "mail" page.)
Next (and especially if there's no error in the mail.log at the time you sent the mail), look for a CF mailsent.log, That will exist if the setting "Log all mail messages sent by ColdFusion" has been enabled in the CF Admin "mail" page. That would log if and when any emails WERE sent out of CF via cfmail.
There can be any number of reasons mails would fail, from a problem with the mail server definition (in the CF admin or CFMAIL attributes), to a problem with the mail server configuration and its willingness to receive emails from CF (the latter could include if the mail server requires the IP address of the CF server be identified to the mail server, or if the mail server requires you to provide a username and password to send mail through it).
Let us know if any of these help.
