R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment:

telnetlib provides a low level interface to the telnet protocol.  The dialog 
you mention appears to be transmitted on the telnet connection, so it is 
unlikely there is any bug or missing feature in telnetlib that would affect 
your problem.

The sentence in the docs you appear to be referring to ("Do not reopen an 
already connected instance.") is just telling you that once you have used to 
telnetlib to open a connection, don't call open again.  It has nothing to say 
about a telnet connection made by some other program.

So, you have an application level problem and should seek help on the 
python-list mailing list or some other general help forum.  Unless you can 
identify something *specific* in telnetlib (bug or missing feature) that 
prevents you from solving your problem, I don't think there's anything more to 
be done here.

(As an aside, have you tried sending /r/n after the a?)
