I'm not using QuickFix, but I'm working with FIX 4.2 for one year now, implementing my own FIX engine that is in some kind similar to QuickFIX. Maybe I can give you some hints...

The message looks quite good. It should provoke a resending beginning on sequence number 2. Did you try it out with different acceptors? Maybe the other side is not able to resend correctly...
There is a free FIX environment called OpenFIX (http://www.openfix.net/) were you can see also the Logfile of the acceptor. Maybe this helps on testing.

As far as I understand QuickFIX, the ResetOnDisconnect or ResetOnLogout would only reset the sequence numbers. But this is actually NOT what you want, because
1.) Probably your own sequence numbers will also be reset. This would lead to a ResendRequest from your counterparty...
2.) Probably they will set the ResetSeqNum Flag in the Logon Message which initiates a reset of sequence numbers on the other side. Some engines doesn't allow this. Other ones allow it - but in this case, all messages sent earlier are "discarded"! So: If you reset the counterparties sequence numbers you won't ever have a chance to receive the messages missed before!
The ResendRequest Message is your own chance to get message duplicates!
Hope that helps alittle bit ... :-)
Regards,
Eva
