AIM Account

[Konstantin Kharlamov]

I think you probably misunderstand what Pidgin is. It's a messaging 
client that is driven by community, same as this mailing list is. Though 
it supports hangouts, AIM, ICQ, skype, etc; but have nothing to do with 
either of those companies, and does not get any support from them in 
particular.

The Pidgin account you created to use AIM is just an information local 
to your PC about how to interact with a particular protocol (e.g. AIM). 
It is not stored elsewhere. Imagine you wanted to use Pidgin with XMPP 
on your local network — having to connect to Internet would be a major 
inconvenience.
