I'm drafting a very important email.
Myself, the engineer and the PM (has/have) kept the customer updated regularly OR I, the engineer and the PM (has/have) kept the customer updated regularly Thanks! |

Assuming that three people are involved, I would write: "The engineer, the PM, and I have regularly updated the customer." YMMV |

Assuming that three people are involved, I would write: "The engineer, the PM, and I have regularly updated the customer." YMMV You're correct, but I'd recommend he emphasize himself. "I, along with the engineer and the PM, have regularly updated the customer." I probably wouldn't say it like that, but it's ok to write it like that. |

When I went to college, my way was the only way. 
At my age I will not change. Bah. Humbug. |

Yes, except no comma after PM. Oh good, this is going to turn out like the 3rd grade math thread. 
48/ Comma (I + PM+ENGINEER) = ? In the original statement I wasn't sure if he was the engineer or not. Good point. The OP didn't paranthesize clearly, thus leaving open to interpretation the possibility that he acted in the dual role of both PM and engineer, and was merely qualifying his use of the pronoun "I". |
