Scalix Wiki -> How-Tos -> Changing the SMTP Greeting

When you telnet onto the Scalix Mailserver on Port 25, you are given the standard Scalix greeting:

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

This gives away quite a bit of information (including the fact that you are running Sendmail), therefore this should be changed to something less descriptive.

Edit /var/opt/scalix/sys/smtpd.cfg, add:

GREETING=SMTPD;

Underneath "EXTENSIONS="

Scalix 11

Edit $(omrealpath "~/sys")/smtpd.cfg, add something like this:

GREETING=%F %P %D

Underneath "EXTENSIONS="

Once you've made your edits, restart the Scalix SMTP Daemon:

omoff -d0 smtpd
omon smtpd
