like my ".mac" account?

so what I read is that my local mail client can no longer read my mail sent to my ".mac" account - now I have to use the web client? more great support for the Mac community, even though it's highly unlikely that our systems are infected. More likely - as I personally found - is that the problem is on the Comcast servers. I recently found someone was managing to use my main account to send spam, but I wasn't seeing anything on my end until a delivery failure system message showed up. The source appeard to be Albania. Sent everything to tech support and haven't heard a thing.

actually, I may be lucky and not affected. I never use the primary account so they can block it all they want. I learned a long time ago with Comcast to set up secondary accounts and use forwarding or external servers (which gives me a "permanent" address) to get mail.
