Hi,

1. Add new IRC account (I tested Freenode), input nick and hit done.

2. Things seem ok, it connects in Empathy (even though the Empathy
   connection button in accounts dialog isn't enabled yet, which is surprising.)

3. I have a registered nick at Freenode, so I need to provide password
   for NickServ at login. Hit "edit options" in accouts dialog and input
   a password, then hit done.

4. Now the access trouble starts (and Empathy disconnects).
