FTP can be performed through the mail according to this excerpt from
the FTP list produced monthly at pilot.njin.net. I have never used
it, but have been told it works wonders when FTP is unavailable.
This will allow you to use ANY FTP sites as I understand it.

For those unfortunates who do not have ftp but do have mail, I have
included the mail address of an archive that will retrieve files for you
through the mail. Send "help" in a message to the server to find out the
exact commands necessary.
The only mail-ftp archive I know of is:
bitftp@pucc.princeton.edu (most well-known)
Please don't ask me how to use it, as it can explain itself better than I
can.
Thanks,
