Comment:

 The username is the part before the '@'. The domain is the part after the
 '@'.

 You should enter 'foo' in the first field and 'bar.baz' in the second. If
 that doesn't work, you likely need to create the requisite SRV records for
 your domain (_xmpp-client, in particular, though creating the _xmpp-server
 records are strongly recommended).

 See
 [http://greate.nl/blog/article/google_talk_for_google_apps_srv_records/
 this blog post] for a listing of the records (you don't actually need the
 _jabber records). If you do not have control over your domain's DNS, you
 need to set the Connect Server to '''talk.google.com''' on the Advanced
 account tab).
