Try writing a second file with the information you have to type in.
Let's call the information file anna.txt.
Anna.txt might look something like:
(your server name) 110
user
(your user name)
pass
(your password)
quit
Once you store anna.txt , try getting a command prompt and typing:
telnet < (path to anna.txt)\anna.txt
