I know its _not_ exactly what you're looking for, but check out
Starlane:
<A HREF="http://ciips.ee.uwa.edu.au/~joel/starlane/">http://ciips.ee.uwa.edu.au/~joel/starlane/</A>
and the my current test game:
<A HREF="http://ciips.ee.uwa.edu.au/~joel/starlane/Arcturus/">http://ciips.ee.uwa.edu.au/~joel/starlane/Arcturus/</A>
Its not a space-trading game, its more an empire-building game, but
there
is a strong commerce element since players buy and sell units amongst
themselves. The news entries will give you a flavor of the game; most
of
the interesting negotiations and deals happen via email.
Cheers,
Joel Kelso
