One of the games I have going was successfully upgraded - just pay attention to the correct procedure:
Open the email file in the original version - watch the replay
Press the big red button
Save the game during the orders phase
Open the saved game in the new version - give your orders
Press the big red button
And more importantly coordinate with your opponent!!!!!
Also note you can successfully have both versions of the game installed. Take the game you have that is working and copy the directory - give it a sensible name. Install the upgrade and point it to one of the copies you now have. Now you can run either version.
The only draw back for CMFI and CMRT with this method is that the new version will see all your older versions games in the saved games list - so watch out for accidentally opening the turn in the wrong version.
