Ok - analyzing the symptoms and its possible that it isn't a CF Server
issue.
I would suspect a change your mail server program. Many people (especially
ISPs) these days are restricting the from addresses that they will deliver
for; this is an anti-spamming issue. If the address that appears in the
"From:" field does not originate as the same domain as the server, the
server just refuses to accept it for delivery. The solution of course is to
change the From: address to one that the server will accept.
Not real familar with CF Server mail delivery - does it conduct the actual
SMTP session, or does it deliver it to a sendmail type program for delivery?
I suspect it acts as a mail client, not a mail server.
May not be the issue, but something that I know I've encountered 3-4 times
over the past few years and the symptoms you describe fit...

Subject: CFMAIL - not going out??
For three days now, all of the confirmation emails my CF app sends out are
being put in the /mail/spool/ directory and NOT sent.
They are all sitting there, hundreds of emails.
This has been working for months!
I am running CF 4.5.2 SP2 on RedHat Linux 6.2.
Can anyone give me any hints/tips where to even begin looking for why the
mails are just sitting there?
How can I "kick" the CF server to send them?
I have looked in the logs and find no mention of these emails... (not in
application.log nor in mail.log)
HELP!
