Wrap the CFMAIL call in a try/catch block and have a second CFMAIL afterwards that sends the error if there is one or a success message if it goes... After it leaves the ColdFusion server it's pretty much out of your control.
Another option is to send it using HTML mail format and set a web bug that is a pipe gif (<img src="http://myserver/checkmail.cfm">). This way you'll be able to see if they received it or not...

I also get it to cc me so that I can keep an eye on it working but I don't want a 500K file choking up my mail box each day. Is there a way I can validate that its sent and just get some type of validation message.
