AIM TXT gives you access to AIM by sending simple text message commands to 246246. Just enter 246246 in the To: field of your text message and then an AIM command from the list below in the message body. It's that easy :)

First, send 'login'' to 246246 and reply with your Username and Password. The full AIM TXT menu will be sent to your phone, with your Username and current status (example: available, away) at the top.
