Why? If it's for security, will it really make a difference? Does it give any information out that an attacker can use? If there ever is a security problem in qpsmtpd (unlikely, but I suppose possible), wouldn't the attacker just hit SMTP servers at random for it anyway? Or if doing a more targeted attack, surely they'll try no matter what the version string says or doesn't say.

Sure. I don't think it's a big issue. I'm not a believer in security through obscurity, but I also don't believe in giving such things away for free.

Thanks,
