Dunno about telnet, but if the server has Perl you might be able to use
bb.pl from the deadcat.net BB site:
http://www.deadcat.net/viewfile.php?fileid=155
It's a drop-in replacement for the bb command. There's also bbsend.exe:
http://www.deadcat.net/viewfile.php?fileid=353
which is a compiled version of bb.pl.
I've used bb.pl in a couple of places, but not recently.
