As for wireshark, this is a production environment and im not really supposed to be installing programs on the server.

Try running it from your Tomcat box then.  You won't get any information
about the DNS requests the SMTP server is making (if any), but at least
you'll see the actual messages between your webapp and the SMTP server.

does your code create everything fresh each time?





p

one reason the issue might not go away once it develops is if you are caching (by means of a static variable, perhaps) a broken object. what does your code actually do; e.g. are you trying to open too many connections to the mail server?

Are there any built-in utilities that might give the same effect?

Quite likely, but you'll probably still need admin or root privileges on
the server to run it.  Talk to your friendly neighborhood sysadmin for
help getting traces from the SMTP server.
