Unfortunately (depending on the point of view....) I'm not the sysadmin
of the SameTime servers and I'm not able to ask creation of accounts for
these purposes. I would be very glad to give accounts to developers but
I can not :(

No, I simply quit empathy. Could not quit while I was at the office.
Actually logging off and logging in back again solved the issue; sorry
for the noise.
I can now log in after editing the account by splitting the account and
server options.
Thanks for the patch. Can you push it to telepathy-haze?

Thanks, should I file a bug on Empathy for this?

Title:
Missing "Server" input box for Sametime accounts
Status in Chat app, and Telepathy user interface:
In Progress
Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Hi,
It is no longer possible to connect to sametime server because there
is no "Server" input box undir Sametime accounts. This happened
recently and according to a freedesktop.org bug report this happened
when libpurple was upgraded from 2.10 to 2.10.1. Here is the
explanation from the freedesktop.org bug report:
"With the latest version of libpurple (2.10.1) a change was made to the
Sametime
protocol:
+ Sametime:
- Separate "username" and "server" when adding new Sametime
accounts
Although at first this seems harmless and only affecting the pidgin client, it
seems that telepathy-haze can not handle this separation. When a new account
is
created for Sametime, the server details are no longer displayed. Also an old
account (that has all the details already) no longer works due to the same
issue. Adding the missing parameter to the accounts.cfg file (mission-control)
causes that this parameter is ignored and removed.
Returning to libpurple 2.10.0 resolves the issue and the server can be
identified again when the account is created." - Raymond Wooninck
