Thank you for your reply. I tried that, but it didn't help.

By accident I happened to be looking through my address book and happened
to notice that the email addresses in the emails I was trying to send
were also in my address book. Upon eliminating the addresses in my
address book, all emails in question were sent out without any problems.

I don't know what the address book had to do with anything, but now that
those email addresses aren't in the address book, I can send out emails
okay. Thanks again for your help.
