Version:            (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

I tried to connect to GMX's jabber server and got the information that this is 
a unknown host. A quick check with PSI showed me that the server works fine and 
only kopete isn't able to connect.
My current version of kopete is Version 0.60.82

Further investigations showed that the first packet send to the server
differs between kopete and PSI

PSI:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<stream:stream xmlns:stream="http://etherx.jabber.org/streams"; version="1.0" 
xmlns="jabber:client" to="gmx.de" xml:lang="en" 
xmlns:xml="http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace"; >

Kopete:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<stream:stream xmlns:stream="http://etherx.jabber.org/streams"; 
xmlns="jabber:client" to="gmx.de" >

I tested it with `cat bad|nc jabber.gmx.net 5222` but both versions
showed the same behavior and the server send only

<?xml version='1.0'?><stream:stream xmlns='jabber:client'
xmlns:stream='http://etherx.jabber.org/streams' id='1839397057'
from='dummyhost' xml:lang='en'><stream:error><host-unknown
xmlns='urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-
streams'/></stream:error></stream:stream>

The next one was to check which server I connect to... and this seems to
be the problem. Kopete connects to gmx.de (213.165.65.50) and PSI to
xmpp-gmx.gmx.net

A quick check which DNS packets were send showed the really difference.
Kopete asks for the ip of gmx.de and PSI asks about `host -t SRV -c IN
_xmpp-client._tcp.gmx.de` (and maybe falls back if to kopetes behaviour
when it fails).

See http://xmpp.org/rfcs/rfc3920.html#rfc.section.14.3 for more
information about that.

I don' know if it is the same bug, but I can confirm that kopete can't
connect to gmx.net in todays debian lenny version:

Qt: 3.3.8b
KDE: 3.5.10
Kopete: 0.12.7

and the version shipped today in KDE4 4.1.4 (Lenny backports)

I can connect to gmx.net with Pidgin 2.4.3 and to jabber.ccc.de with
both kopete versions.

I wrote about the workaround in the bug report. Just specify xmpp-

"Override default server information".

Are you using gmx, 1&1 or web.de?
$ host -t SRV -c IN _xmpp-client._tcp.gmx.de
_xmpp-client._tcp.gmx.de has SRV record 5 0 5222 xmpp-gmx.gmx.net

I am using gmx.

_xmpp-client._tcp.gmx.de has SRV record 5 0 5222 xmpp-gmx.gmx.net.

 host -t SRV -c IN _xmpp-client._tcp.online.de

seems to be identical to your output.
Bu still, i get a popup from Kopete "Connection problem with Jabber server 
xmpp... There was a connection error: Host not found"

This is "Quatsch". Kopete cannot resolve the SRV dns stuff and will not
doing anything useful if you delete your account...

Yes. It works well if your DNS supports SRV records. But there appears
no error message if not (connection silently failed).
