Yes Arak. If you receive your game turns attached to an email from turn@pbw.cc, you can reply to that email, don't change the subject line, and attach your .plr file and it will process it. The stuff on the subject line identifies you as the player, identifies the game, and the turn for the PBW server. If you upload a turn directly before the email turn gets processed, it will ignore the email. And if the email gets delayed and doesn't show up at the server till a later turn, it will ignore the email.

If you have set up your options so the game file isn't attached, the turn email will appear to come from the game owner. In this case you can still send you turn via email, but you have to forward it to turn@pbw.cc. Again, don't change the subject line.
