I should also mention that telnet that is built into Windows does not have any SSL libraries built in, so even if you knew how to use TL in a telnet session, you wouldn't be able to do it.
There is however a utility called SMTPConsole, which is free. The author compiled a telnet client with SSL/TLS libraries built in. I use it to test whether the information provided to me by a customer for their copier is valid or not, and whether or not I can create a secure session from within their local area network.

After EHLO, you would need to enable TLS, then log in. If you did not do this the server would disconnect as soon as you used MAIL FROM:. Also, this only works if the relay you are speaking to hosts the account. If another server does, this will not work.
