Intellij Idea 8.1.3, JUnit Mac OS X 10.6.7 A simple call to SimpleSmtpServer.start(); hangs intermittently, and without consistency, does anyone have any tips?  See code:

import junit.framework.TestCase;
import com.dumbster.smtp.SimpleSmtpServer;

/**
* Created by IntelliJ IDEA.
* User: root

*/
public class DumbsterSanity extends TestCase {
    SimpleSmtpServer smtp_server;
    protected void setUp() throws Exception {
        super.setUp();
    }

    public void test() throws Exception {
        /*
         * Given nothing
         */

        /*
        * When we call the static server start
        */
        smtp_server = SimpleSmtpServer.start();
        /*
        * Then the server should not be stopped
        */
        assertFalse(smtp_server.isStopped());
    }
}

Yeah, this is a race condition within dumbster… Used to happen on my machine, too.

I am currently in progress of packaging dumbster for debian. I've written a patch for this, I'll try to add it to my post…

Ok, the patch i mentioned is located here: http://paste.debian.net/124011/
