įrom August 2006, AOL became entirely free of charge for broadband users. It is based on technology from MailBlocks, which AOL acquired in 2004. The service launched in May 2005 under the name AIM Mail, with 2 gigabytes of mail storage and tightly integrated with AOL Instant Messenger (AIM). This was done in an effort to compete better against MSN Hotmail, Yahoo! Mail and Gmail. In 2004, AOL tested a new free webmail service for the public, without the need of customers subscribing to AOL. In January 2001, an e-mail alert service for text-based digital cellphones and pagers was launched. The service was renamed AOL Mail on the Web in December 1999. It was initially criticized for only working on Internet Explorer, but a later Java-written version ensured compatibility with Netscape Navigator. In 1997, AOL launched NetMail, a web-based version of its e-mail service. Īs of October 1997, AOL Mail was the world's largest e-mail provider, with around 9 million subscribers (identical with the number of AOL subscribers).
In 1993, both America Online (AOL) and Delphi started connecting their proprietary e-mail services to the Internet. After 180 days of inactivity, the account may be deleted. If an AOL Mail account is inactive for 90 days, it may become deactivated, at which point any emails sent to it may not be delivered and may be returned to sender.
