Stay in touch from anywhere with email that stays in sync.

IMAP Mail
Stay in touch from anywhere.

At home or on the road, you're always connected. .Mac Mail gives you ad-free email that stays with you and stays in sync, no matter where you check your email.

On your Mac. On the web. On your iPhone.
.Mac integrates with the Mail application on your Mac, so setup is a snap. On the go?.Mac Mail works seamlessly with iPhone too. Or use .Mac webmail, with features like drag-and-drop filing, attachments, and a message pane. No matter where you are, you'll always feel right at home.

IMAP keeps it all in sync.
Unlike most email services, .Mac Mail uses the IMAP protocol, which means that no matter where you check your email, it's always in sync. Let's say you read your mail and delete some messages in webmail. Then when you check Mail back on your Mac, messages you've read are marked as read, deleted files stay deleted, and saved draft messages are right there.

Ad-free. All the time.
.Mac Mail is also ad-free. That means that you won't see banner ads in your Mail page, and ads won't be added to your messages. What's more, your messages won't be scanned for advertising purposes.

Peace of mind via email.
.Mac Mail automatically scans incoming and outgoing messages for viruses. Images from unknown sources are not loaded unless you allow it. You also get extra privacy measures such as enhanced spam filtering and the ability to create up to five email aliases. And with a 20MB attachment capacity, you have even more flexibility in sending and receiving your mail.

Group email keeps everyone in the loop.
Sometimes it's hard to get everyone coordinated. Not anymore. Your .Mac Group has its own email address, making it easy to communicate with the whole gang. Email sent to this address goes to the entire group, and messages are posted automatically on the group page.

Shared group calendar.
Keep the group up to speed on important dates with your own group calendar. Members can view the calendar online anytime and even subscribe to automatic iCal updates.

A website for your group.
With .Mac Groups, your group has its own great-looking site where members can get updates, see the group calendar, find a link to a Web Gallery album, and more. So whether it's a club, a sports team, or your family, you have a place online that's all your own.

Anyone can join.
Group members don't have to be .Mac members--.Mac Groups are open to anyone, Mac and PC users alike. And because .Mac Groups integrates with your Address Book online, sending invitations to new members is a snap. You can also allow the rest of the group to refer new members.

iDisk.
Your personal hard disk online.

.Mac iDisk lets you store, access, and share large files with drag-and-drop simplicity. And with ample online storage, even huge files are no problem.

Store large files. Access them anywhere.
With .Mac, you get your own online storage space called iDisk, perfect for safeguarding important documents or exchanging large files up to 2GB in size. Say you need to move a big file or folder from your computer at work to your computer at home. You simply drag it to your iDisk and it will be waiting for you when you get home. That's all there is to it. If you have a PC, use a browser to view or add files to your iDisk.

Integrated with Mac OS X.
Because iDisk is built into the core of Mac OS X, accessing it on your Mac is as easy as opening a Finder window. Just drag and drop the file you need, and access it from any computer connected to the Internet.

Share and share alike.
Your iDisk Public folder makes exchanging files with friends a no-brainer. Drop in the files you want to share, and your friends can access them anywhere. They can even post their own files to your iDisk. If you like, you can also add password protection to limit access to your folder. So you and your friends can share files to your heart's content.

Protect your precious memories with a few clicks.

Backup
Protect your memories with a click.

If it's worth remembering, it's worth protecting. That's why every .Mac membership includes Backup 3 software. With just a click, you can keep your music, photos, and other important documents safe and sound.

Customize your peace of mind.
Want to customize your plan? Double-click it and you can change the schedule, add or delete items to back up, and even change the destination. You can back up to iDisk, CD or DVD, or your external drive.

Easy offsite storage with iDisk.
Protect your most important files by backing them up online to iDisk. Your documents will be safe, and you can restore them from iDisk using .Mac Backup.

Save time with incremental backups.
With .Mac Backup, each successive backup updates only data that's changed since the last backup, so your backups go quickly. And should you ever need to restore data, the History feature lets you go back to a specific date.

Protect your precious memories with a few clicks.

10 GB Storage.
Room to share. Room to spare.

Need a little elbow room online? .Mac now gives members 10 times the amount of online storage as before. So you can email, share, exchange, and back up to your heart's content.

More room for email, photos, and movies.
With 10GB of combined email and file storage, a .Mac Basic Membership feels anything but "basic." Now every .Mac member has plenty of room for files, email, photos, movies, or whatever. It's the easiest way to spread your wings online.

Family-size storage.

5 out of 5 stars I love my mac account!   July 29, 2008
Natasa Vretenar (Loveland CO)
There were some problems while mac went to me but now the bugs are taken care of and it has been a pleasure using my mac account


1 out of 5 stars MobileMess   July 25, 2008
RJ in NC
I got this in anticipation of using it with my iPhone. It has been a nightmare and Apple provides ZERO support. There are still thousands of people who haven't had email access for over 10 days and some have completely lost all their emails. This just goes to highlight that when things work, Apple is great but when it fails, they don't care and WILL NOT respond.


5 out of 5 stars very good OS   July 25, 2008
Mark'n Cut (Le Claire, IA USA)
This product has a lot of good solid content along with some frills many can really get into. OS 10.5 after the updates provided free by Apple is very responsive with very few problems. Some leading edge apps. dominate the personal computer uses. Easy to navigate. Easy to understand and intuitive for the not so geeky operator with plenty of pizazz for the informed computer wizard. To bad these things change so fast and cost so much, thats life in the intelligence era. A must have OS for today if you are a mac guy or girl.


4 out of 5 stars Best deal available   July 15, 2008
Scot Andrews
Now that .mac has become MobileMe, this is even a better deal than before. If you've been thinking about subscribing but were doubtful of the price/value ratio, this deal makes it easier to decide to try for a year.
