AIM Mail

AIM Mail is a web-based email (webmail) service provided by AOL. Its main competitors are Gmail, MSN Hotmail and Yahoo! Mail. The "AIM" in the name stands for AOL Instant Messenger, AOL's instant messaging program.


 History

Both AOL Mail and AIM Mail are free and there is also an option for custom domains that you can create (also free).

AOL purchased MailBlocks on August 4, 2004, to add an application-like web interface to its AOL Mail service. [1] This interface is also showcased in AIM Mail.

 Features

AIM Mail has the following features available at no cost:

* Unlimited storage
* 16 MB attachments
* Spam protection
* Virus protection
* Spell checking
* A new AIM Panel (beta in July 2007) with a full Buddy List and indicators to show presence of online buddies.
* An AOL-exclusive email unsend capability (provided the message is sent to another AOL or AIM mailbox).

Advertising is displayed while working with the e-mail account. Users can also read and send mail using IMAP and POP3 capable email programs, such as Microsoft Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird, and Apple Mail.
