So why didn't you simply use the 'delivered with windows' "freewware" 'telnet' to open the raw connection? That's what I do when having trouble with a (SMTP|POP3|IMAP|HTTP) server ... telneting them ... No need for a MUA to implement such function ... OK, better SMTP and POP/IMAP logging would be a real benefit (maybe turned off by default, but to be activated in case of trouble), but a 'telnet' like console only for testing SMTP server ain't something The Bat! really needs as long as windows offers a telnet by itself ... The only thing _you_ have to do is reading RFCs how the communication has to be done (commands and parameters), but for successful bug hunting a server you'll need this information anyway. Otherwise not you but somebody knowledged about this issues should do it.
