Hi Tom.  That is great, but the match line may be too generic.  It says:

> +match snmp m|^..\x02\x01\x030.\x02\x02\x20\x97\x02.{32,38}\x04\x06public\x04\0\x04\x00|s p/SNMPv3 server/

For version detection purposes, it would be best if we could at least
try to match individual SMTPv3 servers where possible.  So if you know
what is running on the remote host, maybe try to include as much
context as you can with the match (this may be enough) and then
include the details in the match line.  Then, if you have another
SMTPv3 server, maybe you will be able to match that separately.  This
way we know more than just that it is some snmpv3 server.  Now it may
turn out that SNMPv3 responses are so generic that we can't glean any
more details.  But it is best to start specific and then we can
generalize it if needed when we receive correction reports at
http://nmap.org/submit/ .
