Mirroring website using email

Please offer any suggestions that you have to the following problem.  It is
not a hypothetical problem, but is very real.

A university in a remote location has a 33kbps UUCP connection to the
Internet.  Because their connection to the internet includes one step that
is UUCP, they are unable to use HTTP, but use accmail services, such as
www4mail, agora, emailweb, pagegetter.  For curriculum content purposes they
would like to obtain a local copy of some specific websites.  Getting pages
one at a time is very slow, because of their 33kbps connection.  If they had
a local copy of specific websites they wished to use in course content, they
would be able to obtain a good response.

Can anyone offer suggestions on how this could be done?
