I use Kmail for my Gmail account, and I've found that certain ISP's won't let 
you use a third party  SMTP server. Try using your ISP's SMTP server, but 
keep your recommended Gmail POP3 settings. It should work then.

As much as Google depends on OSS, in light of the above statement, "Don't Be 
Evil" is starting to look pretty disingenuous.

You're rightusing that javascript link is corrupting the
download...however, you can still get it, via good 'ole FTP. Here's how, with
FTP commands in single quotation marks:

logon to the AOL ftp server-

'ftp ftp.newaol.com'

You'll be asked fror a login and passuse "anonymous", and "pass"

After you're logged in, change to the directory where your file is located-

'cd ./aimgen/380469/'

Download the file-

'get aim-1.5.234-1.i386.deb'

After that, you should get a message that binary transfer is in progress, and
you'll be notified when the download is complete. It'll go to your default
directory. Then just leave the FTP server  with-

 'quit'

 and change to your default directory and run-

'dpkg -i aim-1.5.234-1.i386.deb'.

That should be it. If you're lacking any of the needed libraries, it'll list
them, and you can just apt-get them.

BTW, you could also just use the . tar.gz file they provide...it's a compiled
binary file, ready to run. Just unpack it. And it works from the javascript
linkno corruption.

Actually, you can. There IS an offical AOL IM client for linux:

http://www.aim.com/get_aim/linux/latest_linux.adp?aolp=

There are even Debian-specific installation instructions.

I guess Google doesn't think Konq is worth supporting, that it's market share 
isn't high enough. Considering Google's roots, and the kind of people that 
work there, I'm a bit surprised at that.
