HOWTO: How do I remove MailMarshal information from the Message Header and greeting string?

Expand / Collapse


This article applies to:

  • MailMarshal (SEG)

Question:

How do I remove MailMarshal name and version information from the Message Header and greeting string?

Procedure:

By default the message header displays the following information:

Received: from machine_name ([IP address]) by domain.com with MailMarshal SEG (version number)

The greeting string displays the following information:

220 domain.com ESMTP MailMarshal SEG (version number) Ready
In some cases it may be preferred to remove this information from the message header and/or the greeting string.  For example, you may not want to advertise the fact that SEG/MailMarshal is installed or what version is installed.

To alter these items you can adjust the following settings (these changes apply to the entire array):

MailMarshal 10.0 and above

  1. In the Management Console, navigate to Array Properties | Receiver Properties | Advanced.
  2. Modify the Greeting String and Received Header fields.

MailMarshal 8.X 

  1. In the Configurator, navigate to Tools | MailMarshal SEG Properties | Receiver Properties | Advanced.
  2. Modify the Greeting String and Received Header fields.

Notes:

You can also change the server name used as the HELO name when connecting to send mail. See LevelBlue Knowledgebase article Q10259.
