Hoping this will help someone trying to learn everything at once, the following worked out for me. As a start use the following in your functions.php…

add_action( 'wpcf7_mail_sent', 'do_my_work' ); //access after send

if( ! function_exists( 'do_my_work' ) ) {
	function do_my_work($cf7){ //contact form object passed in
				
		/* Use WPCF7_Submission object's get_posted_data() method to get it. */
		$submission = WPCF7_Submission::get_instance();
		$posted_data = $submission ? $submission->get_posted_data() : null; //get form data
		if($posted_data){ 
			$formName = $posted_data['your-name']; //get form field value
			
			// do something more
			
		}	
	}
}

I had this very problem and searched everywhere for an answer with no success. It may seem obvious to most but I was certain of my settings. I finally figured it out, my POP3 port is 110 and not 25.
