The main problem with ssh on phones is limited keyboards make the shortcuts you are used to hard/impossible, also if you are doing this then I would throw screen into the mix to save frustration on disconnected sessions halfway through composing mail etc
I don't find the keyboard a problem, although some of the keyboard shortcuts are a bit tedious to enter in midpssh, using the More menu. Disconnected sessions are a real pain and disappointingly frequent, so the suggestion of screen is a really good idea.
Other thing that I'd add to this mix is: test the set-up of your ssh phone system's TERM and the mail client on the server before you go. The server doesn't understand vt320, I keep forgetting to set up mailx until it's too late and I seem to keep botching my mutt From line.
