I just email the entire pgn file of the games, it's called postcard.pgn because
that's how _these_ games originally started (actually, those games have
finished, we're on to newer games),  and the games come back to me as just the
last few moves of the game, I then copy them out of the email, paste them into
my pgn file, and I view the games in Winboard.  Then I edit my own moves in
using Notepad.

I've never understood people wanting a special program for email Chess.
