OK.

Yes, 10 seconds is more than enough.

As I mentioned in my previous mail, we also use SubethaSMTP for testing 
purposes. See SMTPAppender_SubethaSMTPTest [1]. Could you copy and paste 
   SMTPAppender_SubethaSMTPTest into your environment and see if it runs 
properly? If it runs OK, I suggest comparing the code in 
SMTPAppender_SubethaSMTPTest with your test code.
