Have you tried sending a CR *and* an LF as a line terminator?
It works (modulo some garbage at the beginning of the session) for me on
port 25 using LF as a line terminator (hit ^j at the end of the line
instead of Enter). But that just depends on how the server is parsing the
lines. I guess sendmail is really looking for the \n and doesn't much
care about the \r.
Therefore this behaviour is correct. I suppose the garbage at the beginning
is failed telnet negociation.
