(iirc, they don't even need to see a valid e-mail address.) That way if one gets popped for TOS violations, you don't have to send out one of those "my AIM name has changed" e-mails ;) FWIW, my MH account has been in use (on and off) for about 9-10 months without an issue. I also run an AIM bot (not MH based, but still with Perl= ) on three (windows based) servers I maintain to save me the time of remote desktopping to them for routine tasks. Each uses it's own 'screenname' and each has a unique e-mail address tied to it. I've never heard anything fro= m AOL/AIM about any of them, nor have any of them ever been unexplainably kicked offline. Was your MH aimbot sending/receiving an unusual amount of messages back and forth? I'm just wondering if something happened to grab 'their' attention?

As far as I am aware, the only "Officially Licensed" client for the AIM network is the software distributed by AOL. What motivation would they have to authorize a client that doesn't make them ad revenue? |
