I know the following is a suboptimal hack but it does exactly what I want.

On my unix box I have a procmail script that, when a specially formatted
mail from *my* imode keitai reaches it, executes whatever commands that
are written in the mail body. The stdout is then sent back to my handy
email address.  This avoids the need to type in a password, so security is
not breached. Of course network sniffers could read these mails (but no
passwords are transmitted), and editing is limited to the level of
sh/ed/ex/sed/perl/wget etc, but it is amazing how much one can do with
these tools and some regex'es.

If someone is interested, I can send the .procmailrc snippet.

Best regards, Wolfgang
