I take it you installed the HPS games in the C: Drive in a folder called HPS. But not in the Program folder. Apart from than that I have no I idea.

I agree with this. If you installed in Program Files or Program Files x86 you will have problems with PBEM. I discovered this when I converted to Vista x64. If you install into a folder you create (I replace the default install folder path of Program Files with a folder I named Games while keeping the rest of the install path) you should have no problems. I've since moved on to Win 7 x64 and am using the same technique with no difficulties.

*Sorry, I just noticed you said you installed into a folder you created. What is the folder name and is it directly under C: ?
