Ok. I've never captured in tcpdump and then imported into Wireshark before, but I'll do some tests, scp the file to my Windows workstation, then follow the stream.
Once I ensure I get a clean stream, I'll post the results.

As I research the documentation on the how-to specifics on capturing with tcpdump in a format that is Wireshark compatible, is there anyone here that could perform a simple test against their own domain email system, that can confirm or deny what I have been witnessing?


Wireshark reads pcap files. Spit them out with this option on the tcpdump commandline.
