Is this a jabber.org account? If so, the problem is that jabber.org had moved the server and has updated the SRV DNS record to point to the new server - since you're using Tor, DNS SRV is disabled because that can't be done through SOCKS5, so Pidgin doesn't know which server to connect to. You may specify "hermes.jabber.org" in the "Connect server" field of the "Advanced" settings of your account to make Pidgin to connect to the new server. -D _______________________________________________ Support@pidgin.im mailing list Want to unsubscribe?
