Why not just use JMS? The servlet puts messages in a queue and returns to the user. In turn, a queue listener turns those messages into e-mails. [solves the problem of delaying the user response while e-mails are sent] If you don't have a separate server/service to run the queue listener, do that inside a single Tomcat thread that is created/destroyed by a ServletContextListener.
