Subject:   How to permanently disable echo in telnet session
Message-ID:  <2D071D679F@netadmin.lp.lviv.ua>

I have following problem:
I try to use telnet session from the dialup terminal to establish 
connection with pop server (without IP connection).
On the client side there is program pm-remote (MSDOS) which is some 
sort of mail gateway ( I know, it look stupid :-), but its a must) . It can talk to popper via terminal, but 
requires disabling echo so it doesn't catch its own input.
I'm looking for the way to disable echo either during telnet session 
or while initializing terminal.
The only way I succeeded was to send 3 times "^E" during telnet 
session, but it turned to change something in handling newlines so 
output starts to look like:
pop server starting.<newline>
<blank from begining of line>password for user required:
< blank from begining of line                                   >OK      
 
I don't know what kind of chars are output but they prevent pmremote 
from detecting responses.

TIA,
