i am using the gae xmpp service to send a chat message.
all simply enuff.
the message correctly sends to most domains, including tigase.im
however when the message is sent to a user on my own xmpp domain (mydomain.com) it returns with a error.
hello
to complicate the issue, i have the same domain (mydomain.com) registered with google apps for business thingo, which hosts my email. it seems that as part of the package there is a chat service provided for the same domain.
i am guessing that appengine is ignoring the DNS record for mydomain.com and internally routing to the google apps for business domain thingo.
any help is most appreciate to confirm/deny or solve my problem.

Make sure that Chat is disabled on your cpanel: https://www.google.com/a/cpanel/mydomain.com/ServiceSettings#ServiceSettings/service=chat
Unlike email, where you can set MX records to point at different servers per account, XMPP can only redirect at the domain level. If Chat is enabled for Google Apps on your domain, all XMPP traffic for that domain will be handled by Google Apps.
