If you can connect to the port from the outside simply hooking up to it with
telnet should give you a banner message with the software version. Some mail
servers refuse that information however.

Subject: Identify the make and model of a Mail Server
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!
Regards,
DF
