I tested that email address and got a similar error:
550 5.1.1 - Invalid mailbox: (e-mail address removed)

It looks like that recipient closed their email account.

I'm assuming you are able to send to other recipients successfully.

I am also running windows vista, and doing my emails thru Windows Mail. I
have qwest as my email provider and internet provider.
I have been trying to send emails thru Windows Mail for the past weeks and
this is the error message I have been recieving:

Sorry! I have my Windows Mail set up so I can send and receive my email as:
(something)@q.com
And "q.com" is qwest's email.
 
Yes, Qwest is a Live partner, and uses the Live.com mail server for addresses
in the q.com domain.

Your problem is that you failed to enable the mandatory SSL option.
Go to Tools, Accounts, select that account, Properties, Advanced,
then make sure the SSL option is checked (two places).
 
Alright. So I ran through those steps. The problem now is it tries to send
the message so it says:
Connecting....
Securing.....
Authorizing....
--Then a window pops up and says:
"Logon to pop3.live.com please verify that both the username and password
are correct for your mail server"

I enter my qwest username and password and hit ENTER
But this window keeps opening, prompting me to enter my username and password.
Is this a problem I should be asking my email provider? Making sure my
username and password are corresponding with them?
