How are you using "buddy at gmail.com"? Is that buddy on your Google Talk
accounts buddy list? Is your account on buddy at gmail.com's buddy list?
Google Talk defaults to blocking messages from people that aren't on your
list, so if buddy doesn't have you your message will be unlikely to get
through.
