Are you using ActiveSync or POP3/IMAP and SMTP?

Does other e-mail sent to that mailbox get delivered?

You'll see this when your Exchange server talks to another Exchange
server and they aren't in the same Exchange organization. It has
nothing to do with your PPC.
This KB article explains the xexch50 command:
How to troubleshoot the "504 need to authenticate first" SMTP protocol
error [843106]
And this one tells you how to suppress sending it to servers outside
your own organization:
Messages remain in an outbound queue until a non-delivery report is
generated when you send e-mail to a remote domain [818222]

And if you use another phone to sync with your mailbox it works?

It doesn't prove anything yet. What about another phone synching with
your mailbox?

An "alias" need not be unique within the Exchange organization. It
only has to be unique within the Active Directory OU. Maybe there's
another user with the same alias?
