You're not likely to find an SMTP server that will let you telnet in since that would provide a potential wide-open door for spammers.

how to send a mail by telnetting through some SMTP server?
Often I'll set some process off, then change focus to another program and be typing away in a textbox (for example), when the first thing pops up into view, maybe with a Yes / No box which I'd then accidentally interact with as I'm still typing.

I just accidentally sent a license agreement for something that was downloading &amp; installing, to the printer as it popped up once it had downloaded, while I was typing a url into Chrome. If I didn't quickly cancel it I'd have had to wait while 53 pages printed while I reflected on what had happened.

What can application developers, or the OS itself do to minimize these problems?
