PBEM Trouble

Trying to initiate an PBEM game as the Soviets. As the second player, I enter my password and click the "V" [check] button and it sends me to the saved section where it it saved.

Once it is sent to my German counterpart, he moves, attacks, etc., then enters his password saves the game and sends to me.

This is how I understand it from Rule 3.3.7. However, when I get the turn from the German it asks for his password.

Query:
1. Do I understand the initial PBEM process correctly? It seems identical to AE-WITP PBEM games.
2. Is the German player not entering his password at the ending his turn?
3. Why am I making this more difficult then it should be?

Yep, sounds like he is not ending his turn but saving normally. He should be entering his password right at the start before he does anything.

Process is identical to WITP........try the server. I like it a lot. I have one regular and 1 on the server. Server it automatically saves the turn and sends an email to your opponent telling him to drop what he is doing and get to his duty.
