Well It seems this problem is not solved because initially I had
problems connecting to Yahoo and Gmail in empathy. It just would not
detect that i'd connected the internet using wvdial.

I found a solution to that problem by changing configurations of empathy
in gconf-editor. So Yahoo started working but yet gmail would not
connect.

So i tried changing the default settings of Gmail account. I tried
different permutations combinations of the following parameters.

Username: myusern...@gmail.com
password: ********
Enabled: check
Encryption Required: check OR uncheck
Ignore SSL certi errors: check OR uncheck
Resource: <BLANK> OR Telepathy
Priority: 0
Server: <BLANK> OR talk.google.com
Port: 5222 OR 5223 OR 443
Use old SSL: check OR uncheck

I tried all possible combinations of these and it always gave me network
error while yahoo was happily running  side-by-side.

My empathy version is: Empathy 2.28.1.1

I guess this is a bug or these parameters are not correct. If not, I'm
not to blame, because this should work without doing any manual setting.

Please take note of this.
