Limit version scan probes to service!

Hi there to all!

I'm trying to limit the used probes @ version scan to a specific service
(ex: smtp),  as the -sV sometimes @ some scenarios, fails to detect the
correct service, probing the target with all possible probes!

Ex: fails to detect some target (for sure a MTA) as smtp service, and
starts to probe the target with other service probes (ex: http ones).

As you know,  this can delay the scan too long, and when scanning
massive ranges, it just takes too long!

Anyone with some hint about this?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Best regards!
