VesperNet History,
section MacDomain


AIM / ICQ

This service is mainly aimed at those using the Vesper DNS.
Currently, MacDomain is the only outlet that allows creation of AIM/ICQ accounts as far as the Vesper / MacDomain projects are concernet, and while the service is available on the mainstream / public internet, it really shines when used with the Vesper DNS.

While using the Vesper DNS, there is no need to modify the AIM / ICQ client or change any settings / update any registry entries, as the DNS will automatically redirect the client to the VesperNet servers.

I should probably also mention that, if a password is forgotten, it can be reset / changed via the MacDomain user dashboard.
