Was this me in the Junkyard game? Because I would be real honored if you wasted your long distance money trying to pull the rug out from under the Gremlins. Hey, and I just put in a good word for your mod in another thread. 
Seriously, I feel email communications should be agreed upon before the start of a PBW game. I have utilized them in some games extensively and none in others. I don't view it as cheating, but it can give you an edge if other players are not coordinating their strategy. In game messaging is just painfully slow.
