it's".mac", not ",mac"

Hello, hannalo-ga;

I found nothing that says you can't have multiple iDisk accounts;
in fact, it is common and there is software to help you manage
them (see Additional Links below).

I read through the .Mac Terms and Conditions, and found nothing
prohibiting you from signing up for multiple accounts.  You are
not allowed to give false information when you sign up, but it
says nothing about not signing up more than once.  Here is a link
to the terms and conditions:

I also read the .Mac FAQ, and it said nothing about multiple
accounts:

Still, I wasn't conviced that it was possible (even though it
seemed to be "legal"), so I searched some more and found some
cases of people having multiple iDisk accounts.  Check out this
newsgroup thread for an example:

"Disk Manager is a handy tool designed to help users manage
multiple iDisk accounts. iDisk Manager can automate the iDisk
login process by storing login information. Connecting to an iDisk
can be as simple as clicking a button or double clicking a file on
the Desktop."

I hope this helps.  If you have any questions, feel free to ask
