prompt not dislayed correctly using in.telnetd

When I telnet to my cygwin box, my prompt is not displayed correctly.
My .profile sets it to:
export PS1='\[\033]0;\w\007\033[32m\]\u@\h \[\033[33m\w\033[0m\]
$ '
When I login via telnet, it's shown as:
\[\033]0;\w\007
\033[32m\]\u@\h
\[\033[33m\w\033[0m\]
instead of:
user@HOST PWD
$
This happens regardless of which telnet client I use, eg: cygwin, Linux,
QNX...
The other OSs _do_ expand the $PS1 path setting correctly.
Am I missing something else?
TIA, Bruce.
