One can use NetCraft (www.netcraft.com) to identify a web server if it is
Appache, IIS, etc.

How can one identify a mail server behind a firewall, be it Exchange,
GroupWise, or Lotus Notes?

nmap or nessus helps identify if a mail server is available through tcp port
25.

Any info is much appreciated!

DF
