Title: Re: Noobie Question... Post by: Negrita on August 02, 2006, 12:56:26 AM Telnet is not outdated at all, and in fact I use telnet to debug mail problems at work every day.
You have to read RFC 821 (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc0821.txt) and also RFC 2821 (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2821.txt) which succeeded it. Don't forget to say HELO/EHLO to the server. I've come across some wierd and rude replies from servers that aren't greeted properly first. Title: Re: Noobie Question...
