Your words: quote:
telnet to connect to remote services such as http or smtp
IE COM automation can be used to connect to remote HTTP service to e.g. pull webpages off the web server or fill out forms, or display pages. There are a couple of UDFs in the UDF Forum and a couple of recent threads. You don't seem to have searched the board first.
There are also well-documented ways to connect to SMTP servers for sending email. This is explained in the FAQ Forum and there are UDFs, too.
And based on the very limited info you provided, which runs counter to ABC's of KiXtart board etiquette and message to new forum users , Section F, you got the answers the same way you posed the question.
Communications is a give-and-take function. Give enough information in a nice way and take away even more information in the same nice way.
And now go search the BBS.
