Determing Microsoft Exchange Versions..?

Hi,

I'm trying to find a definitive resource for translating Microsoft Exchange version numbers in the format of 
5.5.xxxx.yy into the actual major version number and service pack release. 

For instance, I want to be able to view a message header such as:

    X-Mailer: Internet Mail Service (5.5.1234.12)

Then be able to determine that the outgoing mail server for that message was Microsoft Exchange 5.5 SP4. Anyone know an 
official Microsoft resource for this or even an unofficial site with the details? Looking for something that translates 
versions for the two major Exchange releases, 5.5 and 2000. I did some Googling and checked support.microsoft.com, but 
with no real success.

While I'm at it... is there a way to restrict this information from outgoing messages when using Exchange? Saw a few 
messages last week that explained how to mask the Exchange server banner, but not for mail headers and such...

Thanks,

o.
