My high school got email access for students in 1997 (New Zealand). We had to pay per megabyte for web browsing. There were services you could email URLs to, that would email you back a text rendering of the page. So I used that.
They had a fairly smart UI for following links. They would appear as footnotes and IIRC you could just hit reply, type the footnote number, and then send.
