You could write traffic to file (analyze later from file with Wireshark):
Code:
tcpdump -s0 -w /path/to/file.pcap tcp dst port 25
and if you want to capture traffic then to your local SMTP port add:
Code:
tcp dst port 25
or if you want to capture traffic between any (local or remote) SMTP port use:
Code:
tcp port 25
