I've seen "email play" supported in some games (rarely though), but I never took a moment to find out what it is. Is it basically one person takes a turn and the update is sent to someone's inbox where he'll do his turn and repeat until the game ends? The only benefit I see from that would be to escape from the long pauses people impatiently sit through in online turn-based games and the other players keep saying things like "omfg dude, just end your turn already!" Other than that, it's a good way to make matches last for well over a week.
