The same people who think that the banner is a security feature...

Why not just use a more generic banner that doesn't have any company 
name?  It seems from rfc2821 you can use the IP address:

The SMTP client MUST, if possible, ensure that the domain parameter to 
the EHLO command is a valid principal host name (not a CNAME or MX name) 
for its host.  If this is not possible (e.g., when the client's address 
is dynamically assigned and the client does not have an obvious name), 
an address literal SHOULD be substituted for the domain name and 
supplemental information provided that will assist in identifying the 
client.

(It seems "must if possible" means the same as "should", but others may 
read it differently.)
