Sometimes you simply can't ssh - like when you need to test a

As I see it, telnet is far from dying.
Use "nc" (provided by nmap-ncat).
When you're connecting to a non-telnet service, you just need a TCP
connection. Telnet isn't that. Telnet is actually a protocol of its
own, with infrastructure to propagate environment variables, and
communicate terminal size changes, etc, across an interactive shell
session. For simple TCP connections, it's the wrong tool.
