what about having the program automatically save the
game, email it to the other player and quit when a turn
is done (except US of course)?

    Yes, this would be a good feature.

    To do this you would need TripleA to come with code that
    will log into an SMTP (a server that sends mail) server and
    send the file.

    This will though cause un-nessesary problems, people with
    firewalls will start to complain about extra connection
    triplea is making, and users will have to specify a SMTP
    server as well, to which already many may not know what an
    smtp server is.

    TripleA already contacts the dice server. And the dice server is obviously capable of sending mail. So sending the savegame might be done via the dice server - if changing the dice server is an option.
