[NTLK] Courier

I installed Courier (I already had the other necessary packages
installed from Raissa (which is now working nicely BTW), but when I
tried to load a page in Courier I got hundreds of -48201 errors.

Part of what interested me in this is that the Combination of
SimpleMail and Newtscape have eaten up most of the memory on my eMate.
There's only room left over for nBlog and Raissa, and even then, I can
hardly load a piece of data from the net that is larger than a few k...

Is there some kind of SSH program that would let me bypass having to
have all this software on the Newt? That way I could just connect to a
server and use Pine and Lynx? It seems like the actual programs could
be kept on another machine and I could just connect with some kind of
terminal application.
