The message could not be sent. The authentication setting might not be
correct for your outgoing e-mail [SMTP] server. For help solving this
problem, go to Help, search for "Troubleshoot Windows Mail", and read the
"I'm having problems sending e-mail" section. If you need help determining
the proper server settings, please contact your e-mail service provider.

The rejected e-mail address was '(e-mail address removed).'. Subject
'Test', Account: 'pop.central.cox.net', Server: 'smtp.central.cox.net',
Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '550 5.5.0 <[email protected].>
domain missing or malformed', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 550,
Error Number: 0x800CCC79

This is error message I get, I have rechecked the email address and it is
good. This the only one I get it on.
 
If this is Windows Mail or Windows Live Mail, it looks like you have the
settings configured improperly. The message suggests: "please contact your
e-mail service provider". You need to get the setup information from that
provider help / setup page. Once those boxes are set up, you do not have to
back to them again. In other words, don't try to put your "sending to"
e-mail address in there. It looks like you may have tried to do that ??
The To: address goes in the first window

Try taking away the period after the com in that address.
 
I don't know if this will help but will give a try. Thank you very much for
your help. I wouldn't have been able to do it by myself.

Look at Roberts comment please. Check the end of the person's address and
remove the period. I missed it.

Error's 550 and 553 are usually caused by the sending or receiving ISP's. Not an issue at your end
 
See Robert's response. It will fix your problem.
