I put a crude script in /etc/network/if-up.d for this purpose. I apologize for the mangling Modest is likely to do to the script below, but I hope it helps you begin work on a script suitable to your own needs.

#!/bin/sh
#
# Automatically log into mySSID

set -e

if [ "$IFACE" = lo ]; then
	exit 0
fi

if [ "$MODE" != start ]; then
	exit 0
fi

if [ "$ICD_CONNECTION_TYPE" != WLAN_INFRA ]; then
	exit 0
fi

key="/system/osso/connectivity/IAP/$ICD_CONNECTION_ID/name"
name=$(/usr/bin/gconftool -g "$key")

if [ "$name" != mySSID ]; then
	exit 0
fi

wget --no-check-certificate --quiet -O - \
    --post-data="reqForm=perfigo_login.jsp&uri=&cm=&userip=`ifconfig \
    | grep 'inet addr:'| grep -v '127.0.0.1' | cut -d: -f2 | \
    awk '{ print $1}'`&session=&pm=&index=0&pageid=-1&compact=false&registerGuest=NO&userNameLabel=mySSID%20ID&passwordLabel=Password&guestUserNameLabel=guest&guestPasswordLabel=guest&username=user&password=pass&provider=mySSID" \

exit 0
