When you telnet onto a Scalix mailserver on port 25, you're greeted with the familiar welcome:

220 mail.ourdomain.net ESMTP Scalix SMTP Relay 10.0.1.3; Mon, 07 Aug 2006 17:28:04 +0100 (BST)

Is there an easy way to obfusticate (alter) this information, specificially so that it does not display the revision (10.0.1.3)?

Thanks
jonny.

Thanks Don :)

Just to follow that up - how would I display the date on the end of the greeting (all I want to do is remove the Scalix Version number).

Thanks

I'll add a feature request to accomodate a date variable. In the mean time if you are good at scripting you could write something that changes the greeting line and restarts smtpd every day.

Don

Actually, we've already listened and done what you want! :-)

No, kidding - the syntax of the GREETING configuration option will be extended in upcoming Scalix 11 so that all aspects of the message are configuratble, including a couple of variable substitutions.

Cheers,
Florian.
