Way to prevent announcement of server name & version

Way to prevent announcement of server name & version

Postby MC9000 » Sat Jan 14, 2017 2:56 pm

Is there a way to prevent AMS from announcing what the name of the software and version it is using?
When a client connects to the SMTP service, a reply like "220 mydomain.com ESMTP (Code-Crafters Ability Mail Server 2.72)" is sent out.
Is there a way to not advertise this information (or change it to respond with something that hackers cannot use to easily identify the version or the software)?

Thanks!

Ability Mail Server has a Messages section in the settings with the following that control these. In particular the following 2 messages are used in service welcome messages.

System String - Mail Server Company
####APPCOMPANY####
Converts to: "Code Crafters" or similar

System String - Mail Server Name and Version
####APPNAMEVERSION####
Converts to: "Ability Mail Server 4.2.1" or similar
Code Crafters
