You could call a simple script from your .procmailrc, using grep, wget,
mimencode, and mailto to fetch the pages and send as a separate e-mail.
Whats is a good way to add an attachment to an email from a
script/command-line ? (though I think it would be better as a separate
mail.)
That wouldnt (easily) fetch images, style-sheets, etc. You could use
a caching web proxy on your laptop, such as wwwoffle(1), to cache pages,
and options to wget to request images etc. Then you could later view the
complete page in your web browser. The caching proxy would take care of
size limits, and deleting old pages before the disk filled up. Maybe even
pre-fetching images too.
Show us your script when its written!
