Comment:

 Correct, the irc prpl doesn't currently appear to support prompting for a
 password on connection failure. It can't prompt by default as most IRC
 servers do not require passwords. But to me the more interesting issue
 here is that the connection fails the first time, can you get the
 Help->Debug Window output of the SSL failure?

 I'll refrain from asking why an internal IRC server needs password
 authentication since I don't imagine that is a conversation that will go
 anywhere.
