This whole thread has been about getting a Google GMail web (and POP3,
CA) mail account-- which is independent of ISP... Jean could continue to
use AOL as his ISP, but use GMail for email or get a different ISP
(along with using GMail)... he's often commented on liking AOL because
he can connect to it while travelling, which may make it worthwhile
keeping them as ISP, even if using a different email service.
