Actually, that account error is because Gabble needs the account field
to be of the form user at gmail.com. If Loudmouth supported SRV lookups and
TLS (we're gonna look into this shortly), the rest would be
automatically sorted, but currently you need server = talk.google.com,
port = 5223, old-ssl = True, ignore-ssl-errors = True. On a related
note, ddoes anyone know how we can do proper certificate verification
with GNUTLS? We shouldn't have to ignore SSL errors every time...
