Exchange, .Mac, & 'On My Computer'?

I am accessing my Exchange beautifully. I've recently added my .Mac account. My question is do I have to have yet another entire tree of folders? I have my no problems with Exchange account using it's own folders. Is there any way to make a pop/imap account use the folders under 'On My Computer'? If I send mail from my .Mac account it is already using the Outbox from 'On My Computer'. Did I miss something or setup the account wrong?

Thanks for the help,
Jason

Yep…
Exchange e-mail is stored on the server and so is .Mac (using IMAP). You
therefore have two corresponding tree setups. One for each server.
I have my no problems with Exchange account using it's own
folders. Is there any way to make a pop/imap account use the folders
under 'On My Computer'? If I send mail from my .Mac account it is

Only POP gets "On my computer". POP E-mails are actually beeing
downloaded on your computer.
The other ones are only cached.
