Can anyone direct me to where I can find information on how to set passwords and email setings in a PBEM game? I can't find it on any of the menu options anywhere.

Found it:

You have to customize the profile for each player on the setup screen. Any ideas on how to do this midgame then?

Has anyone else seen a bug where the name of one of the players is overwritten by someone's Computer Name during PBEM play?

That looks like a shame.

It seems that the name reverts if you load the game from outside.

If you double-click on the save file in Windows then it opens Civ IV and loads the game directly. When I did this for the first time this morning, it restored my name (but not the password.)

Names can be changed mid-game, alt-D according to the kepmap ... no idea otherwise though, may be a bug. I'll ask Locutus and Solver if they're in irc...
