This is a network problem; something (probably a firewall) is blocking the connection to the google server. You may be able to work around it by choosing a "Connection security" setting of "Use old-style SSL", specifying a "Connect port" of 443 and a "Connection server" of "talk.google.com" in the "Advanced" settings of your account in Pidgin. -D _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list Want to unsubscribe?
