Question telnet shell script on red hat 9 cmd line only

i would like to make a shell script (red hat 9 cmd line only)
to telnet to my local isp's webmail server on port 25 and send it commands
such as helo Smilie help would be much appreciated, and i found no posts similar that answered my question... the closest i've gotten to an answer from about 8 google searches is :
CODE:
#/usr/bash
( echo "helo" ) | telnet /*webserver*/ /*port*/ ;
CODE:
this code did not seem to do the job Smilie sadly...

i could manage in c++ possibly.. with some guidance but i'm trying to learn some shell programming, i've also given up on trying to do this with a doskey macro or a batch file on windows..
would someone please help me?
i'm using red hat 9 cmd line only (no gui package installed)

BTW: batch file code to do this would be awesome

ATF-SH(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 						 ATF-SH(1)

NAME
atf-sh [-s shell] -- interpreter for shell-based test programs SYNOPSIS
atf-sh script DESCRIPTION
atf-sh is an interpreter that runs the test program given in script after loading the atf-sh(3) library. atf-sh is not a real interpreter though: it is just a wrapper around the system-wide shell defined by ATF_SHELL. atf-sh executes the inter- preter, loads the atf-sh(3) library and then runs the script. You must consider atf-sh to be a POSIX shell by default and thus should not use any non-standard extensions. The following options are available: -s shell Specifies the shell to use instead of the value provided by ATF_SHELL. ENVIRONMENT
ATF_LIBEXECDIR Overrides the builtin directory where atf-sh is located. Should not be overridden other than for testing purposes. ATF_PKGDATADIR Overrides the builtin directory where libatf-sh.subr is located. Should not be overridden other than for testing purposes. ATF_SHELL Path to the system shell to be used in the generated scripts. Scripts must not rely on this variable being set to select a specific interpreter. EXAMPLES
Scripts using atf-sh(3) should start with: #! /usr/bin/env atf-sh Alternatively, if you want to explicitly choose a shell interpreter, you cannot rely on env(1) to find atf-sh. Instead, you have to hardcode the path to atf-sh in the script and then use the -s option afterwards as a single parameter: #! /path/to/bin/atf-sh -s/bin/bash ENVIRONMENT
ATF_SHELL Path to the system shell to be used in the generated scripts. SEE ALSO
