There's three main RPG PBeM Servers that I know of:

Irony, MacCray's Keep, & Pheonyx.

My opinions of these:

Irony has the most games listed of these three but suffers from all too
frequent flakey GMs. This is caused by the ease in which people can post
a ad for their game, not the actual server. The site has lots of other
neat stuff and deserves a look anyways and the guy who runs it is pretty
cool.

MacCray's Keep by it's description is set up to be more secure, but in
my only experience the game I registered flopped. I don't think this is
a normal affair however due to the list of ongoing games. There's
apparently some GM & player aids specificly for PBeMs too.

Pheonix claims to be fairly secure by demanding up-front information on
the part of the GM. I've never played any PBeM offered on this site yet.
If I remember right they also have a list of ongoing PBeMs.

Where are the links to these? I'd tell ya but this is my big chance to
plug my page. :)

If anyone knows any other good PBeM servers let me know and I'll add
them to my page.
