You set the domain to *gmail.com* (since your email address is "[email protected]", not "[email protected]"), and you set the *Connect Server* to "talk.google.com", as the very next entry in our FAQ (http://developer.pidgin.im/wiki/Protocol%20Specific%20Questions#HowdoIconfigurePidgintoconnecttoGoogleTalkformydomainhostedonGoogleApps) suggests. I misspoke when I said "SOHO". I meant your home router, which is buggy and doesn't handle a specific type of DNS lookup often necessary for XMPP.
