Pages 130 to 132 in the game manual describe PBEM.
I think Glenn Saunders wrote it.
But, it won't deal with Win 7 or 8 file issues.

Yeah it pretty much says the same thing that I did. But I didn't want to say RTFM. The blitz page might have been done by Jason and had screen shots that were helpful. It is intimidating for some of us the first time.

Agreed. But, sometimes in it's style the manual is clearer? [;)]

The Blitz has blocked the archives folder. So I could not look in there.
It might have been written by Randy. He did a lot of the early CS stuff. But, I am not 100% sure.
