Presumably the subject of Jeffrey's original post (Recipient not found 
on server).

I've never seen it before in those words, but I suspect it means exactly 
what it says: there is no such username as the one you're trying to send 
to on whatever hostname the email address has.

The fact that you're getting this message tends to imply that outgoing 
email *is* working: it's the address that's wrong. If you're sure the 
address is right, then try sending a message to an entirely different 
address and see if that works.
