With regular AIM? No.
I use DeadAIM (its an add-on), and it keeps logs of all my convos.

Gah! Not DeadAIM! I made the mistake of buying that. NO real customer support, and not all of the feature of the free AIMutation. AIMutation is the way to go, with real-time logging.

I know, never said you did, said I did. Hate it so much it's not even worth pirating. AIMutation all the way! Gotta love the skinning, too!

sparsely likes GAIM.
but I doubt you can retrieve chat logs if you didn't save them locally...

I would give AIMutation a shot, but I set up all my buddy aliases, and I don't want to do them all over. :(

There's a DeadAIM Alias to AIMutation converter on the AIMutation website. You just need to use DeadAIM to save your aliases to a file first. If you have an older version that can't do it, they're stored in the registry somewhere. Export them, and then import them into the appropriate AIMutation folder in the registry. Takes a little searching, but I found it when I had to do a long time ago.

Hmm.. in order to run the DeadAIM Alias to AIMutation converter, I'll need to download Microsoft .Net Framework, which is 23.6MB, and I'm on dial-up. :frusty:

Owch. You could do it manually via the registry like I did...

Well, just made the switch, with the registry and everything.
Good: Almost everything, it's better than DeadAIM I'd hate to admit. :lol:
Bad: No cloning, and the popup notifications have some weird icons in them. :huh:
EDIT: Ok, it has that, but the cloned AIM always crashes so... yeah. :blink:
2nd EDIT: Screw it, back to DeadAIM for me. :lol:

I've never had it crash on me while cloning, ever. Oh well, to each his own, I suppose.
