Anyone use netcat on win-98?

[98Guy]

I'm trying to use Netcat (version 1.11 for NT - nc111nt.zip) to monitor a pop-3 login session on the local machine and either nc.exe doesn't run properly on win-98 or I'm not using it correctly.

The command I'm using is -v -l -p 110

I've changed the pop server setting to 127.0.0.1 and have also used 192.168.1.6 (same machine).

When the e-mail client does a check for mail, the Netcat window indicates that a connection has been made, and in that window I type + (then enter) but I don't think the e-mail client is seeing it.

When I try a telnet connection to port 110, again the Netcat windows says that a connection has been made, but nothing I type in the netcat window appears in the telnet window, and vice-versa.

Any ideas?
