AIM trouble - too many contacts? by jmaxsohmer 2005-10-06 19:43:53
I'm not using the actual AIM client, of course - I use Trillian - but I think the reason I can't connect is that I have too many contacts. I had thought that the limit was 200, but from looking at the AIM website I have learned that the maximum is now 150 (it doesn't say as of when, of course). According to the Trillian website, my local list of contacts will add any contacts not on the AIM server to my server-side list, so if I can get AOL to delete my server-side buddy list I should, in theory, be able to narrow my list down a bit and then Trillian will add the ones I keep automatically the next time I log in...

The question is: how do I get AOL to delete my server-side contact list?
