My friends PC is an MS/Windows 98 box.
I know all windows system have telnet in command.com.
Which is reachable from start/run and opens an native dos window.

Would anybody know the syntax of the native dos telnet command
 to include the port number to use?

telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx would get me to the telnet port
at that IP address.

why not just enable sendmail, apache and pop3 on your home box and
telnet
to ports 25, 80 and 110 respectively from your friend's pc to see if
it
works ?
