Error on Sending mail asp.net mvc

Question

Hi whenever i am trying to send the mail from my application on account creation i get the following error.

User not local; please try a different path. The server response was: Bad Recipient at System.Net.Mail.SmtpTransport.SendMail(MailAddress sender, MailAddressCollection recipients, String deliveryNotify, SmtpFailedRecipientException& exception)

Smtp settings provided by client is all right.When i replace my smtp setting with gmail smtp settings on web.config mail is going smoothly.but when my smtp setting is set to the smtp setting provided by client above error occurs.

I have the folloeing in my web.config.

<mailSettings >
      <smtp deliveryMethod="Network" from="from addressm" >
        <network defaultCredentials="true" host="hostname" port="25" userName="username" password="password"  />
      </smtp>
    </mailSettings>

The email address you are using for the To address is does not exist on the SMTP server and was therefore refused.

Make sure you use an email address that exists.

See this forum post for more detail.

Bad Recipient error means that address you want to send some mail does not exist. Check it carefully
