Apparently Your University Address is being processed through Google
Apps or some corporate version.  Have You tried setting up using the
XMPP Protocol instead of the Google-Talk Protocol set-up screen.  It
won't force gmail into the Domain and You just need to specify the
Server as Talk.google.com and also be prepared to 'Accept' the
Certificate whenever 1st logging in.

How to log in to google talk with university emails?

2009-03-18 Thread Jarn

I'm trying to log in to google talk via Pidgin with my university-provided
gmail address (x...@u.northwestern.edu). I can log in with google's own
Google Talk merely by typing in x...@u.northwestern.edu for the name, but
when I do that in pidgin it doesn't connect and says "error connecting to
host u.northwestern@gmail.com". Does anyone know how I would go about
connecting with my university email address?
