Openfire with Beejive on blackberrys

I have a openfire Windoze 3.6.2 server with a handfull of spark clients which seem to be working just fine, but i need to have blackberrys working in the field, I set up beejive on a test phone and it cant login, fails every time, I see the logs and its a pretty basic error

2008.12.29 16:42:22

User Login Failed. PLAIN authentication failed

So any help would be appreciated or if there is a better client to use thats OK as well

Cheers Morgan
