Testing TCP Ports with Powershell

Send-MailMessage is a great addition with Powershell version 2.0, it greatly reduces the complexity of send a test SMTP message, including allowing attachments.

Just found a good script to allow testing TCP ports.

I was able ot use that script/ example along with
the notes on this page to test access to a proxy.
