        Hi,
as far as I know, the imap.aol.com is managed by Yahoo! these days,
thus you need Yahoo! credentials (client ID + client secret for the
OAuth2), but Yahoo! developer console doesn't offer Mail scope anymore.
Search the Internet or this archive for more information.

I sent a request to them months ago (twice), with no response so far.
I'd be more than happy to enable this in the Evolution, ideally also
for the CalDAV and CardDAV endpoints, but there's currently no way for
it.

My Yahoo! account still works with no problem, even without OAuth2.
Maybe it's a matter of time. Try application specific password.
        Bye,
        Milan
