   There is no such thing as "creating a binary connection" via telnet.   
      
   Telnet options are negotiated after the connection.  Binary mode is something   
   the server would request and the client would respond to.   
      
   One way to test Mystic specifically is if you use the outbound telnet to   
   connect to your own Mystic BBS again.  The transfers still work even when you   
   connect through multiple telnet connections.  I just tested that again in the   
   latest Windows build and the transfers were working fine with NetRunner   
   Zmodem.
