Default Re: PBEM setup?

Well, I've done step 1 by editing my ~/.procmailrc and putting in a line to identify emails addressed to dom2@mydomain

Step 2 I think will be ok - I can get the messages dumped in their entirety, now it's just a matter of separating the attachments (with their correct names)

Step 3 is giving me a problem, which I'm sure somebody can help with - when I type

./dom2 -T --host gamename

it says "Nagot gick fel! Text mode can only be used with --tcpserver" ... surely this is not right?? You can run a text-only server, but in order to host one lousy turn you have to install all the graphics libraries? That's insane.

There must be something I'm missing - grateful for any help (Gandalf?)

Yes, as you say, step 4 should be trivial.
