Can she send you an email from that address?
Perhaps she doesn't have the account that she thinks she has....
 
With her email system she can only receive. She is a elderly woman and
regular email is to complicated for her. This system is by pronto.

What exactly does that mean Gary. Is the problem with pronto?

Yes, either that Pronto account is corrupted at the server
and needs to be reset (by Pronto tech support), or else the
subscription for that account has lapsed. Is she currently
receiving mail from other senders?

Everybody else can? That's not quite correct. I just tried
sending to her, and it failed again.
You might try sending from a webmail account such as
http://webmail.woh.rr.com
but I doubt it will make a difference.

I figured out what was wrong. My sister told me it was called pronto but it
was presto. Once I changed the address to presto it worked. Thanks for your
