Default Configuring Oulook Express with an AOL Email Account

In a few weeks I'm going to see a friend who has asked me to configure OE
with his AOL email address. I have the procedure but notice that there are
some AOL features not available through OE and not seeing the ap in front of
me I'm not sure what the caveat about folders means.

From someone who had done this or is familiar, I have a question....
Can individual "person folders" be created where incoming or sent emails can
be filed by person....as is an option in OE?

Thanks

If you are talking about using OE Message Rules, those only work with
POP3 accounts. AOL uses IMAP.
