As I mentioned in my other email, Kellie's issue is *not* actually a lack
of SSL support on the server, but instead that the XMPP prpl needs to first
look for an error before trying to start authentication.

Ignoring that, the message in the Buddy List reads "You required
encryption, but it is not available on this server," where the pertinent
account option is titled "Require SSL/TLS."  What would you suggest?

(I'm probably going to change the account option to read "Require SSL/TLS
encryption")
