Spark, by itself, can’‘t talk directly to .Mac/AIM. Rather the XMPP (such as Wildfire/Openfire) server you’'re connecting to would have to have an AIM transport connected to it. Are you trying to login through your own server?
That is correct, our company has a Wildfire server set up which I can log into with Spark no problem, and the AIM gateway is installed on it. Other people are able to log in with regular AIM handles, so it is just my @mac.com account that does not work.
Thank you for your reply. Let me know if there’'s any additional information I can provide that would be helpful.
it may help to post this question also in the Gateway forum with a link to this thread. Maybe Spark or the Gateway plugin itself validates "@aol.com" and drops other AIM domains.
