I cancelled my AOL Canada account. I was told I could keep my AOL ID and address for 99 cents a month. I now have my AOL address on AOL free mail. The difference between that and AIM mail is that AIM has 2GB amd AOL webmail has 100 MB. I set up an AIM account, separate from my AOL account, just to check it out. I like it, except for the advertising, but I can live with that. Unlike Gmail, it's IMAP. To me that's a huge bonus because of the folders I like to always have at my disposal.
