is there an "mconnect" for DU ?

I'm looking for an equivalent of SunOS command "mconnect" under Digital Unix
3.2.

mconnect -p port hostname does the equivalent of "telnet hostname port" (a
telnet on a non-standard port) but allows to input commands also via a file.
Or here document. E.g.

         mconnect -p port hostname <<END
         my commands go
         in here
         END

I use sometimes mconnect (with port 25) to verify mail addresses amd I would
like to use it also to check URLs on port 80. At the moment I rsh on a Sun to
do it, but I'd like to have a native command on my DU box.

I *do not* want to install TCL and expectk just to do the silly things above,
it's too much a hassle. I'm looking for a simple standalone executable
analogous to mconnect.
