Etan asked you to change the domain to *gmail.com*, *from* 'talk.google.com'.

That would be the first log below (which I've left in).  The issue now is
that you have a crappy DNS resolver (typically SOHO routers, but not
always), and you need to fully read what the FAQ says to do (either fix
your router or configure the Connect Server field (in the question right
after the one about SRV:
