Not to sure if this is possible.... Ok this is what I'm trying to do!

I'm trying to find out if the OS X built-in mail application uses smtpd when sending out emails to to my local server.

I've worked out how to monitor port 25 using the following command tcpdump -i en1 tcp port 25

How can I see what services are being used by an application in the terminal?

On another note when you run the top command you can never see the bottom of the list how can you do this as well?

Thanks

top is like a live monitor that can be used to watch memory and usage. try using the "ps" command to see a list of the running processes. "man ps" should give a detailed description. try "ps -a" for now. good luck.
