Is a hyphen allowed in an e-mail address?

I have a user with a hyphenated last name. It is permitted in her webmail
account, but I'm having trouble with Outlook sending mail.

Hyphens are legal characters in mail addresses. Care to post the exact text
of the error and include as well your version of Outlook and type of
account?

It's an IMAP account and the problem turned out to be my error - I hadn't
entered her entire email address on setup. Thank you all very much for your
prompt replies.
