Underscores generally aren't valid characters in domain names, and I believe the XMPP spec reiterates this restriction. But you're saying your domain includes an underscore? Is this some sort of common naming scheme allowed by Active Directory or something? I'm assuming this is an internal-only domain, right? Are you able to resolve this domain name with standard DNS tools, like nslookup?
Unfortunately your options aren't great: 1. Use a different IM client 2. Get us to change Pidgin to allow underscores in domain names (this feels wrong to me) 3. Patch and build Pidgin yourself to allow underscores in domain names (not trivial) _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list Want to unsubscribe?
