[Hidden-tech] Retreiving Website Email for Client with AOL Mail

[David Shakun]

Hi,

I have a web development client who would like to receive email sent to her
website.  She uses AOL Mail, which does not have the capability to fetch
mail from a POP account, as does Gmail.
The two options I see are:

   1. Install an email client like Thunderbird to retrieve messages from
   both accounts.  An email client of course does not have the same versatility
   of access as web-based email.
   2. Move her to Gmail, with its general advantages over AOL mail.  This
   would include importing her AOL messages and contacts from AOL, which I have
   read must be done via download to an email client and then upload to Gmail.

Have you developers had experience with this or a related scenario?  What do
you recommend?

Thanks,
David Shakun
