Instead of smtp.aol.com, use smtp.aim.com. It does work. I just tested it. But there is one problem, I checked my sent folder and it says the email was sent 2 times. So it might be sending the email twice. Not sure though. You can IM me if you have any questions. xBxCxMx Cheers :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2537261000147911846.post-16632798499805663272005-11-19T07:02:00.000-08:002005-11-19T07:02:00.000-08:00I got the send mail to work by just using another ...I got the send mail to work by just using another e-mail as the reply (smtp.gmail.com) seems to work fine, and just pick the same username with them and you don't have to worry about the person you're replying to knowing who you areAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2537261000147911846.post-74995068181014729312006-01-09T19:50:00.000-08:002006-01-09T19:50:00.000-08:00how do i delte my aim mail account?how do i delte my aim mail account?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2537261000147911846.post-17361326238056811072006-01-09T19:53:00.000-08:002006-01-09T19:53:00.000-08:00i didnt want a AIM Mail account but some how i hav...i didnt want a AIM Mail account but some how i have 1 and the screename 4 it is my friends. i do not understand how this has happened it has his password and also his zip code and all his personal info. so i would please like 2 know how 2 compleltly delete just the AIM E-Mail accountAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2537261000147911846.post-16876092094818967542006-01-09T19:54:00.000-08:002006-01-09T19:54:00.000-08:00i didnt want a AIM Mail account but some how i hav...i didnt want a AIM Mail account but some how i have 1 and the screename 4 it is my friends. i do not understand how this has happened it has his password and also his zip code and all his personal info. so i would please like 2 know how 2 compleltly delete just the AIM E-Mail accountAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2537261000147911846.post-9524913340811789292006-04-18T21:03:00.000-07:002006-04-18T21:03:00.000-07:00I got it to work in Mozilla Thunderbird!
