When you telnet to an SMTP listening process you can tranfer files only by sending the entire file content into the telnet stream (like piping the data into the telnet process after the data command, etc.) There is no command like FTP to do this using hand command (telnet)into the SMTP protocol.

If you want to do this using hand command, you can try cutting and pasting the file contents (if the file is not too big Smilie ) in your telnet session. If you write a script, you can pipe a files content (encoded, not binary) in to the telnet session. There are two or three threads in the board-knowledge-base which demo this for other examples.

telnetrc(4)							   File Formats 						       telnetrc(4)

NAME
telnetrc - file for telnet default options DESCRIPTION
The .telnetrc file contains commands that are executed when a connection is established on a per-host basis. Each line in the file con- tains a host name, one or more spaces or tabs, and a telnet(1) command. The host name, DEFAULT, matches all hosts. Lines beginning with the pound sign (#) are interpreted as comments and therefore ignored. telnet(1) commands are case-insensitive to the contents of the .telnetrc file. The .telnetrc file is retrieved from each user's HOME directory. EXAMPLES
Example 1: A sample file. In the following example, a .telnetrc file executes the telnet(1) command, toggle: weirdhost toggle crmod # Always export $PRINTER DEFAULT environ export PRINTER The lines in this file indicate that the toggle argument crmod, whose default value is "off" (or FALSE), should be enabled when connecting to the system weirdhost. In addition, the value of the environment variable PRINTER should be exported to all systems. In this case, the DEFAULT keyword is used in place of the host name. FILES
$HOME/.telnetrc SEE ALSO
