Help!

iChat (Leopard) won't let me sign into my jabber (googletalk) account.

I have an AIM account that logs in just fine. I also created an account for a different googletalk ID, and that works fine.

So here's what happens: I try to connect my primary googletalk account, it says "connecting," and seems to log in (and plays the logging in noise). But before the buddies show up on my list, I get an error message that says "Lost connection with Jabber The server has unexpectedly disconnected."

I've tried rebooting, deleting and replacing the account, and switching to port 443. Nothing has worked.

Any ideas what else I can try?
 
Well, no one responded, which is lame. But for anyone who comes across this thread in the future... the problem is resolved. You can message me if you want to know how.

Hi there, I'm having the same problems you described, so I was hoping you could pass on your advice for addressing the issue?
