Is that SEIV or PBW?

It sounds like the standard email files arrangment done thru a web page. That can be done with Dom2 also (the game is a PbEM game). The "connect to the server" is an option added later which alot of players preferred.

The .2h file is the file your game creates (2h stands for "to host") and the .trn is what the host sends back to you.
PBW of course. I realize that this isn't really a failing of Dom2. It's just that on geo's SEIV server, players are free to either connect directly using an SEIV client to the server, or to download and upload files from and to the website using a regular browser, while on the mosehansen server, the only option is to connect with a dom2 cllient. And of course, I realize that since the server service is being provided for free, I should be grateful for what there is already (and I am!)

Still the fact is that for me personally, the PBEM approach would be a lot more convenient, since I use different computers at different times of day at different locations.
