I have a BB7100g on Cingular. I have a hosted Exchange Server with Mailstreet and use their BES. I tried Verichat and it connects without any problem. But, I had been using Causerie on a Treo 650 (which I dumped in favor of the BB), and preferred it to Verichat. Now that Causerie is available for the BB, I would like to try it.

Unfortunately, Causerie will not connect. If I try the Direct Connect option, I get the following error: "Connection cannot be established with the server. ERROR: could not open tunnel - failed."

If I de-select the Direct Connect option, I get a different error: "you attempted to open a connection within and outside your company's firewall which is not allowed by your IT policy" and then a "Could not connect to server: permission denied" message.

Does anyone have any clue how to get this to work, or even where the problem lies. Since Verichat, Rambler, IM+, the Cingular and BB web browsers, and all other apps work and connect without a problem, I have to assume it is Causerie. On Direct Connect, Causerie uses port 17500 by default. I have tried port 80, and port 443 with the same results.

Thanks.

There might be a server problem.Did u try it again? It os working fine for me here.

I used causerie for two weeks and it worked fine then all the sudden it just stopped no rhyme or reason

Does any one else got this problem???Causerie is going very well for me.

i have deleted it since it wouldnt work i guess I can try it again

They reported on their site yesterday that the server was having problems over the weekend and is back up. You might consider giving it another try. they've stated on the site that the server used for the development is much busier than expected. So if you have problems connecting, give it a few minutes and try again.

Still not working for me....

When I try the link to the .jad file with my blackberry I get
Error: Invalid manifest or application descriptor.

So now I have wiped the old version off like you said to in the forum and can't d/l the new version, so I tried d/l the old version from your site and that link is screwed as well.

C'mon get your act together
