Aliases could certainly be how it works. However, with mail, this
shouldn't be a problem, you could simply set it up to drop the emails
for other folks in other folders, then have thhe other account look
there for it's messages, either by copying them over, using a sim-
link in the mail folder to point to the proper file/directory.
Again, I've not tried this, but I see no reason why it couldn't
work. Of course, you'd loose the web interface this way, but if you
don't need to check it from remote, then that isn't an issue.

My understanding is thatyou can't receive mail on two different

off the account are aliases. If that isn't the case with you,
please let me know how you did it.
Apple is stating you'd have to have to have the family pack in
order to have completely separate e-mail accounts.

You can have as many emails as you want (I think) We've got
several, and we only have the single accounts (I have one, and my
wife has one) Hers has 4 email addresses on it, mine only has 2,
but it works, and I'd wager you could add plenty more addresses.
I'm sure there's a limit, but I haven't a clue what it is. The
additional features you get with a family pack over a single one
is the additional web space/idisk features. I don't think there's
any other differences, but since I don't have the family pack, I
don't know this for sure.

Folks, I thinkj some of you have used the dot Mac accounts. I
have been looking into these and yes I know all the arguments for
and against. I had a question and that was if I purchase one, I
understand that if I wanted to setup an e-mail account for my
wife, it would be an aliases off my account so she really
couldn't get her mail and mine separately with this situation and
a family pack would be required to do this.
If someone can tell me if it is possible to have two separate e-
mail accounts from eachother, let me know.
Also, is the site and tools VO friendly?
