Uh, this is completely untrue, and I don't know why you would say this. First, you can connect to AIM, the message sets a deadline for *march* 28. So it will work for a month at least. Second, and answering the original question, this will be fixed in pidgin 2.12.0, which will be released soon (next week, ideally) We've been in contact with AOL for the last few months to coordinate an update of some client identifiers to newer values. But AIM isn't going away. > On Tue, Feb 28, 2017 at 3:02 PM, <marny....@gmail.com> wrote: >> >> Hi there, >> >> >> >> Today, when logging into pidgin I got this message: >> >> (12:56:08 PM) AOL System Msg: Hello.
