  : I am trying to make a mail program with BAT:
  :
  : @echo off
  : telnet 192.168.1.103 25
  : mail from:*****@********.com
  : rcpt to: ***@*******.com
  : data
  : test.
  : .
  :
  : This is my BAT file. But it doesnt work .
  : When I type all this my self in ms-dos executor, it works.
  :
  : I hope you can understand my problem...

  [green]When you type in from cmdline, telnet gets its input from the kbd (and shows the result on display). But to be able to use it from a bat file, you have to redirect input. Try this:
  
  * Create a file with the commands you want to give to telnet, like
  mail from:*****@********.com
  rcpt to: ***@*******.com
  data
  test.
  .
  
  * Then have the bat file look something like
  @echo off
  telnet 192.168.1.103 25 < infile
  
  Where infile is the name of the file you created. It's the "<" that makes redirection of input. In the same manner you can redircet output to a file by making the telnet line the following:
  telnet 192.168.1.103 25 < infile > outfile[/green]
