"webmail" is for people in your situation.  Briefly, do the command:

        "mail -s request address@hidden <$HOME/webmail.request"

where the contents of the file "webmail.request" are:

        GET http://sol.slcc.edu/lynx/current/lynx2.7.1ac-0.90.tar.gz

But, the Lynx tar.gz distribution is about 1.5 Mbytes, so you may not
be able to get it this way!  Actually webmail is better as a tool for
pulling down update patches.  Using `ftp' or `wget' in conjunction
with `at' can be very effective.  I have described my methods in:

        http://www.flora.org/lynx-dev/html/month0997/msg00471.html    and
        http://www.flora.org/lynx-dev/html/month0997/msg00151.html

You might experiment with "webmail" to download these two posts.
Good luck!
