Communicating with an email server using TELNET

TELNET is a network protocol which enables means of two way interactive text-based communication from one computer to another over the internet or local area network. We can use TELNET to test Server or Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) communication using TELNET. Communicating with an email server using TELNET helps when you find your email is not working properly and you are not able to receive or send emails. You get a response from the server in return that can either sort your email error or can check out why the problem is occurring in emails. Follow the below steps to communicate with an email server via TELNET:
