The integration just isn't there at all. Unfortunately there is no way to forward a mail message to multiple users… using the address book. The integration just isn’t there at all.

I'm sure there's a technical reason for this, but I need junk handling in .Mac Mail. Period. I'll leave it at that.

That's so cool! How did you do it, Tim? In the screenshot, it looks like you have a little Apple icon in the Safari bookmarks bar. That’s so cool! How did you do it, Tim?

Further, there is <i>still</i> no way to send mail from any account other than your @Mac.com address (or one of the aliases that <i>they</i> let you use). This limits the utility of the webmail interface for me dramatically, as I do not normally send messages from my actual mac.com address unless they're only being sent to immediate friends and family. The bottom line is that if your primary (or only) reason to have a .Mac account is e-mail, it's certainly not worth the price tag. As part of a more comprehensive package, however, it's hard to beat for it's simplicity and ease-of-use. iDisk and the .Mac syncing features paid for themselves for me a long time ago.

I guess the problem would be that mail.app by default stores junk locally, but still it seems like there should at least be the option. Count me disappointed.
