Hello,
I am hoping some one has a suggestion so I can send a message and some files
to an apparent unknown recipient. I sent a message with the recipient's
address typed correctly and OE said the serve did not recognize the
recipient. I have confirmed that the address is correct, both verbally and
through an email sent by the recipient to me. I have tried replying to that
message and still the message does not go out. Any ideas are welcome.
Thanks, -Angelo

Perhaps you have a corrupt address book entry for that person? Have you
tried removing it and then giving it another whirl?

There could be some other unlikely reasons for this to occur - ultimately
this can lead to the need for a whole new Identity, which is a pain, but
which would almost certainly resolve the problem.

If you do need to reply directly to me, just remove the capitalised letters
from my faked e-mail address.

I suggest that you do not post to these newsgroups using your real e-mail
address! See Q048 on http://machelp.webhop.net/ for more details on
