No, this is the login method that was previously documented at
http://dev.aol.com/aim  As far as I know there is no way to connect to
AIM using XMPP.  There was some kind of experimental gateway that was
apparently publicly accessibly a year or three ago, but I haven't
heard anything about it since then.
