Sending or Checking mail using Telnet, Very interesting

Instructions for sending mail with Telnet Follow these Steps

Open the cmd prompt.

Type telnet server.com 25 (If you live in Canada, put 23) (where "server.com" is the name of the smtp (outgoing)

server of your email provider, such as smtp-server.austin.rr.com). This can be found by checking your account info in the program you normally use for email.

Type HELO server.com.

Type MAIL FROM you@server.com.

Type RCPT TO Friend1@anotherserver.com, friend_two@someotherserver.org, friend.3three@Someserver.com, etc.
To write the message, type DATA, followed by your message.

To end the message, put a period on a line by itself and press Enter.

Important Tips

Just a note: you may have to enter a ":" after the "mail from:" and the "rcpt to:"

This can also be used to send email as other people.

Some servers also accept 'ELHO' in place of 'HELO'

Warnings for users

Hotmail and some other mail services do not allow telnet access to their mail servers.

This can be tracked by anyone with enough technical skill, access to your ISP's records, and a bit of determination, so don't do anything you wouldn't want to possibly be associated with you.

How to Check Email With Telnet

Telnet can be used as another way to check email. The first two steps are for Windows only; Mac and Linux users should use their own methods for launching a terminal/console window.

Follow these Steps

Select Start in the bottom left corner of the screen, then select Run.

Once the Run window starts, type in cmd.

At the command prompt, type in telnet emailprovider.com 110 (where "emailprovider" is the name of the service you use for email).

Type USER yourusername (you may see what you type or not, and "yourusername" should be changed to whatever comes before the @ in your email address).

Then type in PASS yourpassword (if you can see what you type, you will see your password).

Type list.

You will see a list of items with labels like "1 1024" and "2 123556."

If you want to look at the message labeled 2 123556, type retr 2. You can replace the 2 with any other number to view other messages.

If you want to delete message 1 1024, type dele 1.

When you are done checking your email, type quit.

Japan successfully launches high-speed Internet satellite

Japan successfully launches high-speed Internet satellite

TOKYO (AFP) — Japan successfully launched Saturday an experimental satellite aimed at providing high-speed Internet access across Asia, even when terrestrial infrastructure goes down, the space agency said.

The domestically developed H-2A rocket carrying the Kizuna satellite was launched at 17:55 pm (0855 GMT) with no glitches from the Space Centre on Tanegashima island off the southern tip of Kyushu Island, southern Japan.

The communications satellite, expected to be in use for five years, separated from the rocket approximately 35 minutes after the launch, said an official of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) during a live broadcast.

The 342 million dollar-Kizuna will allow super-high speed data communications of up to 1.2 Gbps, which would make it the fastest in the world, the agency said.

That rate would translate to 150 times that of the average high-speed ADSL connection rate of 8 Mbps, or 12 times the speed of a fibre-optic communication delivery to a person's premises (FTTP).

The "Kizuna," which also means "bond" in Japanese, is expected to begin transmitting and receiving data with terrestrial infrastructures in July after completing preparations and confirming the satellite's safety.

Japan is looking to use the satellite to allow communication when a ground-based network is severed by a disaster in any Asian country, in which case it would be used to transmit data to crisis management offices.

The agency is hoping it can also be used as an educational or medical tool to reach people in remote or mountainous areas.

"The Internet is now an integral part of our lives; but its infrastructure levels vary. Urban areas ... have a better environment, whereas some mountainous regions and remote islands are not well-equipped," JAXA said on its website.

The satellite will enable students in Asian countries to communicate smoothly and with no time lag among one another, as if they were in the same classroom, it said.

The satellite will to last five years, an agency spokeswoman said.

The launch was delayed by one week after JAXA said it had discovered a problem with the gas jet thruster for its launch rocket.

Japan, like developing Asian powers China and India, has been stepping up its space operations and has set a goal of sending an astronaut to the moon by 2020.

Japan faced an embarrassing failure in November 2003, when it had to destroy a rocket carrying a spy satellite 10 minutes after lift-off because a booster failed to separate.

However, Japan's first lunar probe, Kaguya, was successfully launched last September, releasing two baby satellites which will be used to study the gravity fields of the moon among other projects.

The 55-billion-yen (500-million-dollar) lunar probe is the most extensive mission to investigate the moon since the US Apollo in the 1960s and 1970s.
