I haven't upgraded to CS6 yet but it sounds like you still need to use the ProEXR plugins. I was hoping for better integration of EXRs in After Effects with CS6, unfortunately that doesn't seem to have happened, but I will keep my fingers crossed for the next version... the pain with using a plugin to access EXR channels is that it changes the rendering order from what is 'normal' and so masks can be effected, and I don't think frame blending works at all.
AFAIK to use EXRs in After Effects you just use the free After Effects plugins, which were also included with CS5.5, so I don't think you need to buy anything if you're only using AE.
