I don't know if any of my empathy problems have to do with Orca
enhancements or if it's just my own ignorance.  I thought I would give
Empathy a try but can't seem to connec to anything.  First, I tried a
setup with SIP on iptel.net.  BTW, I can use linphonec on this just
fine; at least I could call echo and my voice mail box OK but when I
try these same calls from empathy, it just rings out as if my
connection doesn't exist or something.  I also tried an IRC connection
on irc.freenode.net.  Again, this works perfectly with irssi but on
empathy, I can't seem to join any rooms.  I set up the account with my
nickname and got it to point to irc.freenode.net but when I try and
join a room, it keeps showing an empty combo box for account.  I have
no idea what to put in there and it keeps saying unknown.

I'm also trying to set up a jabber account but I'm not sure where
we're going on that one.  So at this point, I have been unable to do
anything successfully with empathy.  Am I missing something big here?
- From an a11y stand point, I think empathy is looking good but I wonder
if I'm missing yet still with regards to verifying my accounts
connected successfully.

Can anyone help me out?
