There are a few (or so I've heard) places on the Internet where someone
has donated time/server space/expertise and created an environment for RPG
enthusiasts. I've only actually encountered one, which is Rondak's Portal.
It's more Play By Web than Play By EMail, but it might work for you.

One cool thing is that it has an integrated dice roller, so (if you want)
you can have your players make their own rolls, and they can't cheat. The
only Deadlands-type thing it won't do elegantly is let the players draw
their own cards or chips.

Anyway, the address is:

http://www.rondaksportal.com/

or

http://www.rondaksportal.ca/
