It ain't gonna work.

As of right now there are exactly 4 ways that I know of on the Mac to get 
your AOL mail.

1: AOL client
2: AOL Web mail interface
3: Netscape Navigator's email client (using IMAP)
4: Claris Emailer

Mail.app can't access AOL email. ALTHOUGH, I did just see a report 
recently of someone that wrote a Mail.app plug in to access Hotmail's web 
mail. In theory, the same should be doable for AOL's web mail. Humm... 
sounds like something someone might want to look in to.
