Cannot Join Streams Channel/Group
Hey there.In a recent thread, I have tried to Join the Streams/Forte Tea Garden Group, but it seems that the server is rejecting me across different accounts, and I'm not sure the admin can see my followup messages, so I can only post it here to be seen.
@Bill Statler Based on my logfiles, your server seems to reject my request with A HTTP 409 (HTTP 403 with a different account).
Here's the related log entries from my Server:

it seems your server has some issue in communicating with mine, which is weird since I can just act fine with any other server so far.
