Adds an option for unread mail notification for AIM over oscar. Yippy.
This involves making a connection to the email AIM servers (parallel to
chatnav, bos, auth, ads, etc.). Also added were functions n' stuff to
handle getting mail status updates.
AIM does this in a very silly way. They only tell you how many messages
you have when you sign on, so I had to change connection_has_mail so it
will just say "bleh has new mail," without saying the number of new
messages.
Also, I haven't really looked into having you auto-login to webmail,
though it is possible. This is good for now.
Oh, and since I'm sure people will ask... AIM screen names come with an
email account @netscape.net. You have to sign in to netscape.net to
activate it.
