But the signature for the service did have this bit added to it that
was missing without the EHLO probe:
(hello,2E,"220\x20\x20DP-6020\r\n250-Hello\r\n250-DSN\r\n250\x20CONNEG\r\n")


Okay I've attached a patch against the svn version of nmap-service-probes.

It produces output like this:

-----------------------------------------
$ sudo ./nmap -sV --datadir=. 127.0.0.1

I don't know enough about Fyodor or Doug's philosophy on what is a
reasonable addition to the service probes file to comment on whether or not
this patch will make it into any release.  It should work for you though.
