How to set up group chatting in Adium with a Google App account?

Here is my configuration:

Account: a Google App account (***@***.com)
Chat room name: osqa
Server: talk.dzone.com
Handle: my name
Password: empty

I got 503: Service not available error.

When I put my Google App account to the "Handle" field and put my password there as well, I got the same error.

Any suggestions to set up chatting in Adium with a Google App account? Thanks.

This isn't really something that belongs on the OSQA meta site. At best, it could be a comment on the OSQA chatroom question. Our server is just a standard/Jabber/XMPP server, and many of us use Adium to access it all the time. You have something wrong in your Adium config.

I'm sorry if I asked the question in the wrong place. What kind of questions belong to this site?
