Fire the below command
# /usr/local/psa/admin/sbin/mailmng --features | grep SMTP_Server
You will get the exact Mail server which you are running

I believe, you can check /etc/init.d directory to locate what mail server being used.

Try going through process list to see active daemons. "ps aux" should list that.
You can also check list of services running on boot using "chkconfig --list" and see which one of the MTAs runs on boot.

A simple telnet <IP_Address> 25 in the command prompt can also give you the exact mail server used in the server if the default SMTP banner has not been modified.

Simply connect to the SMTP port of the server and it will show the SMTP server
#telnet domain.com 25
or
#telnet ip 25Fred Bruner
