You need IMAP to see folders on an email server. Does AOL provide IMAP?

This site says they do.

Yes, AOL supports IMAP, and I have an account set up in TB: http://gsfn.us/t/422mi

Set up the AOL account as IMAP in TB, and once the folders have downloaded, drag the messages to Gmail IMAP folders, assuming you have Gmail set up in TB as IMAP.
