I hear this question a lot. Well, I was in England on business recently.
There are a lot of places that will rent you time on a computer there,
but none of the computers that I rented time on had an ssh client. By
setting up a telnet server on a non-standard port on my home machine, I
had the ability to get in, check my mail, and get out.
For those who don't travel to England, what about using a public machine
at a library to check your mail. How many of those have ssh clients?
