When you type in from cmdline, telnet gets its input from the kbd (and shows the result on display). But to be able to use it from a bat file, you have to redirect input. Try this:

* Create a file with the commands you want to give to telnet, like
mail from:*****@********.com
rcpt to: ***@*******.com
data
test.
.

* Then have the bat file look something like
@echo off
telnet 192.168.1.103 25 < infile

Where infile is the name of the file you created. It's the "<" that makes redirection of input. In the same manner you can redircet output to a file by making the telnet line the following:
telnet 192.168.1.103 25 < infile > outfile
