When replying to an email and selecting reply or reply-all a single quotation
mark is inserted before and after the email address causing the email address
not to be recognized.

Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.

It shouldn't affect it at all. What version of Outlook and what type o
email account do you use

So far, all you have shown is that the receiving *mail server* has
encapsulated a string representing an e-mail address with single quotes.
That does NOT mean that *your* e-mail client is adding the single quotes.
Go look at the contact record in your address book to see what you put in
there for the recipient's e-mail address.

Presumably you used a bogus e-mail address in your post here (i.e., there
was no "(e-mail address removed)" to which you intended to send an e-mail). For
whatever is the true e-mail address, maybe that account doesn't exist (now
or ever) at whatever domain was specified. It could very well be that the
recipient doesn't exist at the receiving mail server.

Outlook does enclose some addresses in ' and its been a long standing
complaint - it should not cause problems with the server though.

Haven't seen in in over a decade of using Outlook through several versions,
but I'm still back on OL2003 (of course, each person's experience is limited
so I simply may have never been exposed to the problem). The OP never did
mention WHICH version he uses. Is it an OL2007-only problem?
