When I telnet into someone's server, how can i tell what version of exchange they are running?

Microsoft ESMTP MAIL Service, Version: 5.0.2195.6713 ready at Thu,
25 Aug 2005 13:46:13 -0400


That is what I get? I think its running on Windows 2000. How do I tell what it is?

Thanks

That may or may not be true. Exchange 2003 leverages the SMTP service of the OS on which it is installed. All you can really tell from the banner is that this is a Windows 2000 SP4 box. (5.0.2195 = windows 2000, 6713 is the build number for SP4).

It could be either Exchange 2000 or 2003 running on windows 2000.

To determine the exchange version, you will need to examine the header of a message from that server.

Example:

Received: from US0104.company.com (localhost [127.0.0.1])
by eunuchs.company.com (8.9.1/8.9.1) with ESMTP id LAA11786
for <John.Fullbright@yetanothercompany.com>; Tue, 16 Aug 2005 11:40:51 -0700 (PDT)

Received: from US0101.company.com ([10.10.10.10]) by US0102.company.com with Microsoft SMTPSVC(5.0.2195.5329);

The message originated on Exchange 2003 SP1 V6.5.7226.0 and passed through a routing bridgehead running Windows 2000 SP3 (5.0.2195.5329)and a eunuchs sendmail 8.9.1 box.
