It may be possible to redirect a naive .Mac webmail user, to another site, possibly, one mocked up as webmail (a user may ignore the fact SSL is not present). http://webmail.mac.com/redirect/http://your url
How is this different from <<ANY>> other redirect attack. Why is this a ".MAC Webmail phishing attack" ???
Is there anything special about .mac webmail that makes this kind of attack any easier? This is not some intuitive leap here...
Now the IE obfuscated (look up the definition in dictionary.com) redirection bug, that was good. It could even be crafted to make the little lock icon appear.
I just don't want some ignorant reporter reading your message and thinking "oh my god, Apple's email service is full of holes!!!"
