Re: Community challenge: Automated PBEM e-mailing
The tool contains all the elements that make up the work flow of hosting a PBEM game, that's right.
The tool can be and was indeed compiled into a windows exe file.
Yes, windows users can just click on it.
The most important issue the tool suffers from is the dependency on gmail. Which I wanted at the time to get rid off but didn't get to. Also since gmail has changed their protocol a few months ago the tool can't perform the actual mail d/l and u/l operations. The bright side of this is that gmail protocol was changed to standard IMAP which python supports easy enough so it shouldn't be difficult to fix.
