If you need to do it as an encrypted session (normally a 'https://...'
address in a browser), try this:
openssl s_client -connect mail.poughkeepsieschools.org:443
Then you should get a bunch of stuff on the screen. After it stops, you
should be able to treat it like a normal telnet session. I've always
found supplying a little bit more information than just 'get index.php'
is more helpful. I'd type this (replacing the <cr> with an enter -- HTTP
requires two cr/lf's to signify the end of the header). Note the spaces
around the first '/' in the first line, but no spaces around the second '/':
GET / HTTP/1.1
Host: mail.poughkeepsieschools.org
<cr>
The output that follows should be a webpage. You can replace the first
'/' in the first line with any relative path (so, for example, an
address like
http://mail.poughkeepsieschools.org/long/path/name/file.html would
become "GET /long/path/name/file.html HTTP/1.1")
Hope this helps.
