How are those PBEM campaigns working out? Is it basically like playing an AI campaign,except its not the AI?

...

I have also played a few opponents (who I won't mention) that completely forget about an ongoing game, and it never gets finished. The last such game I was doing pretty good in too, then boom nothing.
Love PBEM campaigns. There's one or two minor bugs to work out, but I don't think I'll play any other way.

As for unfinished games, try The Blitz wargaming club. If someone does disapear, you get to chalk up a win, and your opponent gets a loss. You can see how many games and how often your opponent has played, and their win percentage etc. If you play a regular member, unfinished games are very rare...

Seconded. The Blitz is a very good site for finding PBEM opponents. You also have the option to set your 'availability' and number of concurrent games, so others know what to expect in terms of turns per day. (Or days per turn, I still say one or two days is perfectly normal)
