Which version of Mail.app are you referring to? Jaguar? Panther? Is 
mac.com your Internet Service Provider (ISP) or are you using someone 
else such as Earthlink, comcast, etc.?

If you have Panther (10.3), you have the new iChat AV. You only need to 
separately purchase it if you are continuing to run Jaguar (10.2) and 
want the voice and video capability, since the beta for iChat AV is 
expiring soon. I haven't had any problems with muting or adding buddies 
with Panther's iChat AV.
