This is simply not possible. XMPP (which is what Google Talk is based on) requires that the domain be configured to be used with the specified connect server. Unlike MSN, where you can have an arbitrary email address of yours as your username, in XMPP the domain means something in how the protocol works. As it certainly is not going to be the case that MSN has configured hotmail.co.uk to be a Google Apps domain, you cannot have a `...@hotmail.co.uk` JID. -D _______________________________________________ Support mailing list Support@pidgin.im http://pidgin.im/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support
