the notify.txt that is sent to players

the notification could also be changed to include the turn number. It could also easily be changed to include emailing the turn file.
Which makes you automatically think PbEM. If a game had its own email address such as
armageddon@dom3minons.com then something like procmail could manage incoming emails to place the .2h files (which means "to host") into the game directory. It could also kick off a script to check for all turns being in and then run/quit the host. This would raise the number of games that a server can run by many levels.
