you really want to check out [`socat`][], which does everything that `netcat`, `s_client` and a bunch of other tools do, plus more besides. My favourite feature is that it can use not only raw stdin as a source, but also a readline prompt, so you can chatter at your mail- or webserver with all of the editing conveniences you enjoy in shell.
