I have a copy of chessbase and i notice it has a correspondence function that ties into your email account and lets you download the moves from emails directly into Chessbase. Is it possible to do that on this site and if so, how do i do it? Anyone tried to do this? Any assistance rec'd 😀

nope, not here

the easiest way to get games from RHP into ChessBase is copy and paste using PGN. Copy it here, and paste onto "new board" in ChessBase.

You can do a file save as, save the complete list of all games as PGN, and when you open it, (Database - Open, select the PGN file.. it will open as a database itself)..
but.. for those that use chessbase DB, have you noticed it chops off the names from the PGN? I first import into Winboard, then open it into Chessbase after it converts the PGN file to CBH file.

EDIT: but, no.. not direct from email.. just adding on to the last post

Don't do it! You might get banned for cheating, because you are exporting a PGN which this site encourages!! 😛

You can have the site email you PGN files. You can get the PGN by either clicking on the game in your games list, or click on the Info link next to the game you want and then click Get PGN/FEN. On *that* page you can opt to have the site email you the PGN. Just make sure this site has your correct email address and you're good to go...
