script telnet command from NT server as a client

[lelton 0]

We have an NT mail server that needs to submint a telnet command to another mail on a regular (scheduled bases).

 

I was thinking if I could type direct Telnet commands from a dos line then I could schedule it in a cron dos batch file.

 

Any ideas how to accomplish this in an easy and very reliable way. This will be running on a server so ... I really don't want to add any other software to the server that might make it unstable. I am really looking for a way to type telnet commands from a command line and then schedule those commands.
