How can I migrate from AOL Mail to GMail?

Question

I was able to import contacts but I want to make sure I have a smooth transition and don't lose any mail. I want to make sure if anyone emails me at AOL that it forwards over to Gmail for a period of time.

Is this possible?

Answer 1

Use Gmails mail fetcher and AOL's POP3 access;
