You didn't mention whether you were using Windows' telnet.exe or
Cygwin's (inetutils) telnet.  (If you had attached the cygcheck output
as per the reporting guidelines this would have been clear.)  You
probably will have difficulty using Windows' telnet with expect as it
does not know about ptys, but Cygwin's telnet should work fine.
