The error message you've posted at the bottom here shows:
' ' Do you see that there is a space at the end of it,
inside that single quote? That means, whoever is addressing this email has
a space on the end of the address. They need to type this address in
without the space and correct it in their contacts list.

Yes, that's the space - and the error message is quoting what is input as
the address, so the space is in there somehow . . . . . just for "fun", try
typing it in as ".comx" - and then backspace, so it removes the "x" - that
should leave the cursor positioned right after the "m" in .com, and see if
it sends. I don't know how else the space is getting in there other than
you are somehow typing it and not realizing it, or maybe your keyboard is
possessed !! You could have a stuck key or something similar . . . . .

When you start typing that email address, does it auto-complete on its own?
You may want to delete the email address from your auto-complete list.

You can delete the entire auto-complete list:
http://www.winhelponline.com/article...dows-Mail.html

Or try this utility to selectively remove some unwanted addresses:
http://www.winhelponline.com/article...dows-Mail.html

The replacement mail program, Windows Live Mail, uses the standard
contacts list for auto-completion instead of the separate list used by WM.
You are encouraged to upgrade to the newer WLM program:
