This was a MicroSoft problem. Awhile back there was an article in PC Gamer Magazine which stated that Windows 7, 32 or 64 bit OS was the cure all for all gaming problems and it was, at least for me, I was able to install and play any and all games that I played on XP or Vista 32 bit. I also use Gmail, and have not had any problems. The only time I have seen a problem with a turn is when the other person does not actually finish their game turn and sends the battle file in a Zip without actually finishing their game turn. And this will happen when you do not click on the "Advance Turn" button on your bottom tool bar. As far as I know JTCS is compatible with all parts of Windows 7, 32 or 64 bit OS.

I have not had any other issues with W7 except for the fact that the Map Editor does not work (the map does not scroll properly, becomes garbled instead).
I've had the file problem twice when sending a finished turn. I double checked after sending and I had finished the turn. The most recent issue was with a team game where I do not finish the turn but sent it to my fellow general instead.
Btw, the Unit Viewer does not work either, I received a x64 beta from Arkady in the Matrix forums, that version seems to work without an issue. Overall, W7 has been a nice user experience.
I did not have Vista at all, moved from XP sp3 to W7.
Thanks!
