[jdev] Re: Problem Connecting to GoogleTalk using my custom client

>> Does this mean GoogleTalk ONLY supports X-GOOGLE-TOKEN??? I don't see any
advertisement for SASL-PLAIN or MD5 or anything....

You have two choices here:
1) Send <starttls/>.  The server will respond with <proceed/>.  You then
negotiate TLS and restart the XMPP stream.  The features advertized then
will be SASL plain
2) Connect to 5223 instead.  Negotiate TLS right away and then log in as you
are w/ old school non-SASL login.
