PBEM File Size?

Post by mbatch729 »

How big are the PBEM file(s)? Getting close to the limit on my mailbox w/WiTP turns, checking to see if I need to up my storage or set up another account prior to starting some PBEM games. [:D]

That's pretty small, compared to the monster files in WiTP. Thanks for the quick answer.
