I was wondering if anyone knows of such a creature that I could send email to with an URL, and I would get a reply of that HTML file? example I email bot@somewhere.com with the Subject:http://www.hotmail.com

and I will get an email of the HTML file at www.hotmail.com This would be handy because I don't have a broswer (2 meg RAM (I know)) and also for anonymity, cookies etc I couldn't be traced.

Uhm.. this service used to exist.. I dont know what the email addy was though :( Another solution is to find a school that has a publicly usable lynx account. Lynx is a text-based browser for Unix, and is fully usable from a telnet session. Lynx is a nice browser. I use it all the time on my local machine in an xterm. Yeah, I could fire up netscape .. but lynx is better. :) Try telneting to: sailor.lib.md.us login: guest trfn.clpgh.org login: trfn bob.bob.bofh.org login: supply your email address public.sunsite.unc.edu login: lynx lynx.cc.ukans.edu login: lynx Be nice to these machines.
