I did not know that wasn't a legal character, thank you for the update:)
- we're running iChat server for chat (we use it for chat and file
services, Linux for web and collaboration), most likely the reason for
the unusual errors. It was a hold over from long ago, and does it's
job... but apparently does not connect at all in pigin.
Using your method for authoritative server in the advanced tabs did the
trick, login is live! Now, unfortunately, the user can talk to other
people on Pigin or not on Pigin, but can't receive a response. They also
do see any buddies in their list, when other clients like Adium, iChat,
and Psi see it just fine.
I'll keep digging around before I jump ship. Thank you for the guidance
again!

Good afternoon everyone,
We've been slowly migrating our users worldwide off of the Windows
platform, but had a bit of a problem using our own custom Jabber
server with Pigin. We have multiple domains, so we use fully
qualified email addresses as the username, thus:
[email protected]
...would be the full username. Of course, everytime we do that, Pigin
pulls the domain out and pops it into the domain field, regardless if
that field is already full.
Anyone know of a workaround so that I can get an ampersand as part of
the username? Thank you!

The short answer is you probably need to enter the usernames as
"bob.joe\40mydomain.com" (replace '@' with "\40"). An '@' is not a
legal character in the Jabber ID node (username).
Just to make sure, though, are each of these domains configured as a
vhost on the XMPP server? IOW, does the XMPP server think it is the
authoritative server for mydomain.com (et al)? If so, you want to set
up the accounts as:
Username: bob.joe
Domain: mydomain.com
and on the Advanced Tab:
Connect Server: our-jabber-server.blah.internal (this causes
Pidgin to connect directly to this server instead of relying on the
results of a SRV lookup on _xmpp-server._tcp.mydomain.com).
