    check for any open smtp ports, if they are behind a pix (any you have
    'conduit smtp 25' or something like this in the config file, which most

    220 SMAP (and some other crap)

    usually you don't have to (if by fingerprinting you mean nmap -O), they
    usually give out way too much information anyway. check the http server
    banner for starters, see if there is any ssh installed, try to get some
    mail relayed through their mailserver, like a mail delivery notofication,
    preferably to postmaster or webmaster asking some stupid question. by now
    you usually know if it is unix or nt. dig deeper...
