Yesterday I read an article on Punto Informatico called AOL tenta lo sbarco in Italia: AOL opened its services to my beautiful country (Italy).

The most interesting service that AOL provides for me is a mail with IMAP support, thanks to this protocol I can keep multiple clients simultaneously connected to the same mailbox (My iBook and my i Mac).

With AOL you can also create a Photo Gallery with unlimited storage capacity (totally free).

Some useful links:

• Here there is the Italian main page.
• You can downlod related software at this page. (I use only AOL Pictures for Mac and AOL Connect).
• Here there are instructions to configure IMAP and smpt services.

I'm testing the email service, and if I don't find problems, I'll say goodbye to my gmail account!

Update 2007 October 24: Now also GMail supports the IMAP protocol, and it seems even better... Then I'll continue to use the good old address! :-)
