To be clear, I'm not saying you can't do it. I am only saying that using
webmail in this way via a shell account is likely to become more
difficult over time. As I also said, however, it is still likely to be
possible with the right webmail software.
So, I know that I can, if I actually get an email provider suggestion
find ways to continue.

I asked for what I specifically needed, not for, no matter how well
intended, what someone else thinks my goal is in this situation.
The link I provided to a list of alternative webmail software almost
certainly does lead you to exactly what I understand you are looking
for: Webmail that will work without relying on Javascript.
As I said, I haven't personally tested any of the webmail software
mentioned in the list but Reco confirmed that SquirrelMail works fine
without needing Javascript and so it should work ok from a text-mode web
browser via your shell account.
All you need to do is find an ISP or other service provider that can
host SquirrelMail for you. As I say, if I understand your requirement
correctly then this should fulfil it.
In addition: Does anyone know if either Horde Imp or Roundcube work well
without Javascript? I'd have thought that, in practice, both of these
are more likely (than SquirrelMail) to be standard offerings from ISPs
nowadays.
